'The empire stretches across the world map, pink like the blotches on a drunkards face.'
A dark epic fantasy set in a broken world of plots, high treason, intrigue, murder, war, and witchcraft. War rages across the Great Empire as Templar's, Witches, Inquisitors, Wizards, Kings, and Murderers clash and plot intrigues.
A young Sir Thomas Devereux spies for the empire under the guise of being one of the great literary minds of the age but he is is having trouble finishing his latest novel. His mother bullies him, his father has disinherited him, and his lover is a known witch and freethinking woman.
The cultural laws are introduced, the inquisition is in full swing, and the sadistic Witch-Finder General persecutes all who fall within his grasp. And so begins the hunt for a lost treasure, the fight for liberty, and the struggle for equality.
