I wanted to go. I wanted to leave the floating island of Riem and everyone on it behind, even if it meant I would have bittersweet memories. The bitterness would fade. Life would go on and maybe I would even grow fond of the recollections. The girl who was dropped off the cliff in Riem had drowned in the Serac. Whoever had crawled onto this ship was someone else entirely.
"Are you alright, Feathers?" The Captain halted my thoughts.
I didn't owe him the truth, but my heart ached for someone to confide in. "I don't think I am."

Nearly three centuries ago, the once-mighty human-dwarven alliance of Ostrovia was destroyed during a brutal series of civil wars and political malfeasances. Ancient blood magic and dwarven machinery fueled the death and destruction. Kings turned on one another, and the great wizards were corrupted by their own power. In the last days of the fall, the orc tribes, united by chaos and bloodshed, descended from the mountains and destroyed the war-torn kingdom, becoming the new dominant race of the land, leaving humanity on the brink of extinction. During those final days, a group of desperate survivors set course on a bold expedition into the perilous and uncharted Sea.
