HoloEngines by vinceTMD
Fandoms: Hololive (Virtual Streamers), Mortal Engines Series - Philip Reeve
28 May 2025

Summary
Sixty minutes—is all it took for the ancients to bring humanity to the brink of extinction. Those who survived mobilized their settlements, starting life anew upon the poisoned Earth. They hunt for food and fuel, where the weak perish, and the strong grow ever more powerful. Thus began a relentless cycle of predator and prey, on a grand scale.
Then one day, the stars erupted in colors never seen before. From the heavens descended strange beings cloaked in garments unlike any known to us. Their presence and powers are both alien and divine. They saw our desolation, heard tales of our folly, and ventured into our battered, roaming cities.
Here, they taught us their ways—their knowledge, their vision—and offered us a new way of life, for the better or worse. And ushered us into a new age of Holocities. -

Summary
In the land of a futuristic post-apocalypse Earth, everything that can go wrong, has gone wrong. In the presence of the threat of nuclear war, everything nuclear de-escalated, but that didn’t mean the war did. Biomechanics and great feats of engineering quickly created the first examples of this, automatons and zombies. Both of those apocalypses rose in different parts of the world, with the Eastern Coalition’s Mechanical Grade Automaton uprising and the Western Union’s Zombie Outbreak, the few safe havens remaining were great structures and eternal fortresses such as the Guangzhou Harbour Tower and the One World International Aerial Trade Centre. However, this tale takes place in a tiny little wandering city known as.. London.

Summary
“Look!” Lunah yelled, snatching his attention back to the oncoming sleighs. Behind all of them something larger loomed: a mountain of metal and archeomek that dwarfed Aurora. And it was moving. Eight tiers rose above banks of massive skids, the lower ones wreathed in enjin-smoke while the upper glinted in Mother Sun’s light. It was a stronghold, he realised with a jolt, a moving stronghold.
The traction-city of Arkangel finds the stronghold-city of Aurora.
