about

Part 1:
In the era after the last Saleo Kings had fallen, Iduin topples again into bloody political turmoil. Barthian soldiers flanked by clockwork sentinels flood the streets of Mavilla.
The last desperate hope of the eccentric Count Russo is to re-assemble the ancient Order of Seran, a band of historic noblefolk loyal til death to the Saleo line.
However, the Count hasn't revealed to the Freesteaders in his employ that the fulcrum of his gambit is the exhumation of a young girl, a girl who disappeared without a trace five centuries past...

The scrappy band will need more than their wits and weapons to prevail.

Part 2:
Under the shadow of the Living Miracle, the New Order of Seran is caught in a power struggle between two hot-headed pirate captains of the Hanging Caravan. Coerced by the dashing rogue Sprigadee, the order has no choice but to find a way up to Sederon and unseat the usurper Ix Tatiana. In return, maybe the sky pirates could be convinced to join the insurgency against the Barthian occupation... but if Lady Elica returns to the High Throne of Argin, will freedom return to Iduin?

Part 3:
In an age of brutality and suffering, when tyrants have drained the very life from the soil and bent every knee left living, when children learn early to shed blood just to survive… What if it could all be undone?

The question had weighed like a firm boot on Elica’s neck since the war council in Count Russo’s Manse. Her uncle (really more of a distant nephew, though he didn't feel like family at all) meticulously laid out his plan for her and the rest of the Order of Seran. After the Freesteaders disabled the artillery at the Ruined Arkell, they would make one final push to Argin, the occupied capital. There, far beneath the city’s shimmering golden towers, lay a great source of power from which Elica was to draw.

This had always been her fate.

Yet, as the first glimmers of sunrise began to sparkle on the distant city walls, Elica still couldn’t shake her doubts. Who was she to decide the fate of the known world? She was still just a girl. And wasn’t the power they sought to harness the very thing that prompted her to hide away in the Metaplane all those centuries ago? To Elica, barely a season had passed since her Sigilé. She still remembered her first meeting with the Freesteaders, when the tangles of their fates began to unwind…

The beating of the wyvernling’s wings beneath her snapped her out of the reverie, they’d be in Barthian airspace before long. If they had any hope of making it past the sky-sliders, Elica would need to put the past out of her mind.
It was the future of Iduin they were fighting for, and the Count ensured her that today’s fight would be their last.
Still, the ageless heiress couldn't help but wonder...
