The world rests at ease after the cycle of ceaseless war comes to a close. The victors and the losers now must coincide and live in a new age of innovation and industry. However, some wounds never heal. Kingdoms have become increasingly antsy in the turn of the century, and the stench of unrest and vengeance lingers in the air.
Leaders of each side meet behind closed doors and talk in hushed voices. Privateers and war heroes are enlisted into fleets and armies. The world once again hinges on the brink of war, and a darkness slithers from ancient depths.
In a world scarred by battle, another war may be the least of it's concerns, and one lone sailor; one lone wolf may be all that stands before total annihilation.
Note: This story is a work in progress. So far I have only released the first chapter, which is more of a warm-up. I have plenty of plans for this, but at the moment I'm busy and not in a very inspired mood. Should any body like it, maybe I'll add another chapter. This will be a full fledged book, and may be taken off of wattpad for financial reasons or if some body steals my work.
Also, if you'd like to do some artwork or work with me on the story then I'd love to hear any ideas. There are only two qualifications needed: 1) You must enjoy the story and be invested in it as much as I am. 2) You must be skilled in drawing or writing. That is all, DM if interested.

On a regular day, around dusk, the assassin is tasked to break into a castle. It was supposed to be a simple payday for Nemo, but a strange encounter with another, slighted by the world, hell-bent on revenge, the circumstance too familiar for him to ignore.
