Tethered to the Deep

For seven years, Elosia has lived as a ghost in the hallowed halls of the Aethelgard Loom. As a student of the Scribe province, her only companions have been ancient scrolls and the silent, distant gaze of General Kaelen-the Kingdom's most formidable warrior.

She is a "loner" by choice, hiding her rare talent for Thread-Walking behind thick
glasses and a quiet demeanor. She believes she is invisible to the man who haunts her dreams, a General seven years her senior who belongs to the gravity-wielding province of Iron-Hold.
But the threads of the Kingdom are fraying.

When a violent coup led by Kaelen's own kinsmen shatters the peace of the Seven Provinces, the "Rotation" of power is sabotaged. The King is trapped in a magical coma, and the only hope for the realm lies in a "Void Scroll"-a message that can trigger the next Omni-Pulse and restore balance.
In the heat of the fire, the General's mask slips.

Entrusting the scroll to Elosia, Kaelen reveals a secret he has guarded as fiercely as the Crown: he has loved her from the shadows since she was a child, protecting her path and tethering his very soul to hers. To save her and the scroll, Kaelen commits the ultimate sacrifice, collapsing the Bridge of Sighs and falling into the depths of the Sea of Glass.

Because the General didn't just give her a mission-he gave her a reason to fight. And Elosia is going to bring him home.
