Overview
For centuries, the immortal Tidal Lords ruled over the world of Amyrantha. However, their power was tied to the Tidal Star: as the cosmic plane faded, so did their abilities until they disappeared altogether.
Nowadays, the Tidal Lords are believed to exist only in ancient legends, kept alive by the enslaved Crasii in their oral stories. But one day, a man claims to be Cayal, the immortal Prince.
Have the Tidal Lords returned? The young Duchess Arkady cannot believe it, and yet the unknown Prince exerts an indescribable attraction on her.
As she listens to his tales, she realizes that her homeland is facing an apocalyptic downfall…
