● "For over a thousand years the Nerlinean Ocean has been the fulcrum of the world. The battleground for waring empires, conflicting religions and avaricious merchant companies. On a ship in chains are five slaves. These five are not like the others for they are resolved to escape. Their escape will begin a journey from servitude to wealth and power, but the group have secrets, some so terrifying they will shape the fate of kingdoms." ― paraphrased from this book's product page on Amazon.com as of 2024-03-07.
