Cabbott and Riven Soh’vail have a plan — to steal the Skyfold’s source and free their people from Sovereign rule. For centuries, the Sovereigns have used their god-like power to rule Prytarria, a world of islands floating in the clouds and caught in eternal storms. Some, like Cabbott, suffer under Sovereign power while dreaming of cloudless skies. Some, like Riven, defy their masters and laugh in the face of a Sovereign’s curse. Still others plot and scheme, for the day humans can reclaim their glory.

Whimwondery is the academical study of the magickal properties of elemental curiosity and its two sub-particles - whimsy and wonder.

In the city of Naemralda, a glorious capital of untold wealth and glamor, the people of Ceremai live in exile—content but loathed, and ever dreaming of the homeland they left behind.

A tale of grisly murders, monsters, and madness, The Father of Shadow and Death follows one man’s doomed quest to save his people—from the wrath of a vengeful god, and the traitors who hound his every step.
