Robotics and machinery fill their presence in the streets of Cor''Meum; machinery such as replacing lost limbs, robots that are helpers, and giant machine boats that soar in the sky.

While the body of Cor''Meum and military KEEPIN (Keeping, Everlasting, Extravagant, Peace in the Nation) wants to forget about magic and move towards this modern industrialized world, it later becomes apparent that behind closed doors magic may be more involved with Cor''Meum than what the people are lead to believe. A Pirates'' Handbook to Magic is a coming-of-age story about transgressing away from nationalism and blind allegiance, and entering self-discovery.
