The world of Ysarianth is a dangerous place to live, it always has been. A millennia ago, when Man battled The Gods and won, a new race was created, The Arcanics, beings with the ability to control the elements. A thousand years on and only two of the three continents wield Arcana with the third pursuing the way of machines and technologies. Filled with cut throats, sell swords and continental factions, the political balance teetering on the edge of a knife and it only takes one person - Nenet, the infamous Magpie Assassin - to tip the scales and set off a chain of events that shifts the very bedrock of the world itself. Nenet finds herself on the chilling streets of the Rimy City, the backdrop for a treaty signing for peace between the three continents of Ysarianth. Tasked with the elimination of the world leaders, save for one - Nyx Shad-Sin, Empress of Navaria and - though unknown to all but Nenet's ruler - Descendant of The First Arcanic. Sparks fly, friends and enemies are made and Gods set free in a story of devotion, bloodlust and unrequited love. Nenet must decide if she will stay in her indifference, The Grey or if she will stand with her companion and risk herself for their survival.
