Description: [edit] [history]

We are all bound. Whether it is in literal chains or metaphorical chains, we have oppressors, obligations, even love holding us in place.

During a scientific expedition to the Blazing Crescent, the SS Serendipity discovers a mysterious woman adrift in the ocean. She is from a world beyond an impassable barrier; the world of Siperon. As she tells the tale of the life she left behind, she is also preparing herself for the future that awaits her in Lomany.

There are two concurrent stories which unfold. The frame story that Trosyn "Red" Nytt tells of her history as a slave, and the present story of the relationships she develops aboard the SS Serendipity. Although there are romantic elements in the story, I do not consider this a romance.

What you can expect:

* Chapters ranging from 2500-5000 words.* A mix of third and first person narration.* Lore vaguely inspired by Celtic/British Isles mythology* Mature themes without the crutch of gratuitous sex and graphic violence
