In a world where magic has become a luxury, a prize to be won, safety for those who possess it is almost as rare as the magic itself.
Donghae-si is small, nestled in the far coast of South Korea and surrounded by thick forests. It's considered Korea's save haven for the blessed, hidden even from those who seek it.
Perhaps the only other place to hide is where Yeonsa finds himself in May of 1885- Taken under the wing of the younger brother of only the most notorious pirate of all time.

Wicked Waters | Oceana Book I
A dark foe. A forbidden love. A deadly, high-seas quest. Mercenary sailor Jack's past comes back to haunt him when his crew receives a commission during the height of hurricane season. Charged with returning the all-too-familiar Prince Valory to the capital by way of the isles, Jack and schooner Windjammer battle storms and sea-monsters alike in Oceana's treacherous waters. Jack's new patron, however, is no ordinary nobleman. A hardened soldier and powerful commander, Valory boards Windjammer to scour the isles for signs of the mysterious new threat at Oceana's borders: an evil that burns innocents alive and smashes ships to pieces. Yet Jack isn't without secrets of his own -- secrets that unravel under the growing intensity of a forbidden attraction to his patron. Forced to reclaim his lost title, Jack comes face-to-face with the past he thought he'd outrun. As Windjammer races to defend Oceana from invasion, he and Valory must work together to untangle the threads of the dark alliance threatening their home, crew, and kingdom -- or risk losing everything in the process.

Silent Chains
The tale begins in the bustling, impoverished streets of Hanyang, where Yohan, a mute commoner, live among the forgotten and forsaken. The air is thick with the stench of decay and despair, a stark contrast to the grandeur of the royal palace that looms in the distance. Yohan, however, are a ghost in this city, unseen by most, but his defiance is palpable. Despite Yohan's silence, his eyes speak volumes-sharp, calculating, and burning with a fire that no one, not even the oppressive government, can extinguish. Emperor Yi Hwan, a man consumed by power and cruelty, never intended to take notice of someone like Yohan. His world is one of iron-fisted rule and heartless decisions, yet Yohan's defiant gaze as he endure punishment for a crime he didn't commit, sparks something in him. When he sees Yohan kneeling before the magistrate, not begging for mercy but glaring back at those who seek to break him, Yi Hwan is taken aback. Intrigued and unsettled by Yohan's silence and the strength that radiates from his battered form, he makes a decision that will bind them both in ways they cannot yet imagine. He buys Yohan, not as a man would buy a slave, but as a possession to bend and break. Yohan's body, bruised and broken, is now under his control, but the emperor soon learns that there is something more dangerous than defiance-an unwilling heart, a soul he cannot crush. The story unfolds as Yi Hwan attempts to dominate and silence Yohan, but Yohan's resistance, Yohan's silence, and Yohan's unyielding spirit draw him closer, even as it pushes Yohan both toward a tragic and destructive love.
