Lorendeium - a land blessed by the Stars, cursed by realities. Starlight descends from the True Sky, used to weave concepts into reality through astramagica, or to fuel marvelous technology through halleum. Yet Lorendeium is also beleaguered by anomalous beings, objects, and phenomena from other realities, shaping its people's past, present, and future.
Nana is a Wanderer - a person from another world. She is not the only one, for many have been whisked into Lorendeium, delivered by anomalous storms called klasmics. Wanderers are gifted in astramagica, but she considers herself a normal girl otherwise. Within this unknown reality, she seeks her purpose.
Cael is an advocate for halleum - liquefied Starlight that is fueling a new age of progress. He is a native Loren, a noble in an empire, who ran away to the place that shared his love for the technology. In this world both changing and unchanging, he searches for a way to fulfill the purpose he set for himself.
Michael is an older Wanderer - a hero of a complicated conflict. His formal demeanor, mixed with bursts of mischief, belies his tumultuous past. Despite of, or perhaps because of this, he serves as a mentor for Nana, guiding her to a kinder journey. Has he truly found his purpose, or is his own journey not yet over?
Blumen is a Border City - a haven at the edge of civilization, where native Lorens and wayfaring Wanderers coexist. In this city, Nana, Cael, and Michael form the stormchaser crew Four Torches, braving klasmics for riches, knowledge, and glory. Throughout their journey, Four Torches find themselves in triumph and despair, amidst friends and foes, facing conspiracies and destinies.
Witness - as these Wanderers of Blumen write their part in the faerietales of Lorendeium.
