In the shattered world of Regius, great skyships traverse the expanses of open air between the inhabited fragemns, or islands in the sky. Pirates prowl the airways, preying on merchant ships and any unlucky enough to cross their path. Aboard one such pirate ship, the young swashbuckler, Gideon, sails the sky plundering along with the rest of his crewmates. That is, until one day when he comes across the ship of a princess on a perilous, secret mission to save her kingdom and the fate of Regius itself. Gideon decides to joins the princess in her quest. Cutthroat brigands, Armadas of warships, terrifying storms, shadowy enemies, and treachery from all corners threaten to throw him off of his path and into the swirling abyss of the sky. This is still very much a work in progress, and, as such, will even contain some notes to myself occasionally in parentheses for changes that I haven't yet implemented. Thanks for understanding.

| Featured Story | This fast-paced novella follows the adventure of a fledgling sky pirate as she becomes entangled in a revolution. For a year, the scrappy picklock Clikk has flown aboard The Wastrel disguised as a man. When her captain kidnaps a girl named Molly, Clikk is furious to learn that he plans to sell her as a bride to a despotic emperor. Molly has a secret that could be the catalyst of a revolutionary war, but the captain can't wait to be rid of her. Girls are bad luck on airships, and this one suffers a curse that makes her unable to stop crying. Clikk schemes to help Molly escape, but to do so, she must inspire a mutiny, stop an imperial wedding at sky and sneak the girl onto a hijacked ship, all while enduring the child's intolerable crying curse. *************** "If you have ever loved a fairy tale, odyssey, or penny dreadful, you'll feel right at home." -- Sarah Toledo "A coming of age story introducing Merriet's well designed steam world." -- Alan Reid
