The world of Sarnaut was once whole. Then catastrophe shattered it, tearing the planet apart and leaving fragments of civilization-known as allods-floating within the mysterious and deadly Astral.
The survivors rebuilt upon these scattered islands, but centuries of hardship divided them. Two great powers emerged: the League, an alliance of Kanians, Elves, and Gibberlings, and the Empire, dominated by the Xadaganians and their allies. Their rivalry grew into a seemingly endless war fought across the surviving fragments of their world.
But the conflict between League and Empire soon proves insignificant compared with what waits beyond their borders.
Astral demons attack ships and settlements. Ancient ruins reveal traces of civilizations that understood far more about Sarnaut than its present inhabitants. Powerful Great Mages pursue their own ambitions, while expeditions into unexplored allods uncover secrets connected to the catastrophe that destroyed the old world.
As both factions venture deeper into the Astral, the history of Sarnaut begins to unravel. The heroes discover that many of the disasters shaping their world are connected-that the Great Cataclysm, the Astral, the demons, and the extraordinary magical powers surrounding the allods are pieces of a much larger mystery.
The struggle expands far beyond a simple war between two nations. New lands are discovered. Ancient enemies return. Alliances shift as former enemies are sometimes forced to confront threats neither could survive alone. Entire civilizations, gods, dragons, demons, and forces capable of determining the fate of Sarnaut become part of the conflict.
What begins as a war for control of a shattered world ultimately becomes a battle to understand its past and determine whether it has a future.
This is the story of Sarnaut-a world broken into allods, divided by war, surrounded by the Astral, and filled with people determined to survive whatever waits beyond the next horizon.
