The story begins in the city of Vaelstrum, a majestic settlement drifting through endless skies between scattered floating lands. Descend too low, and the void swallows you; climb too high, and you pierce the edge of outer space. The city was recently attacked by the Horde, ruthless pirates determined to claim Vaelstrum for themselves. After a desperate struggle, the city managed to fight them off and escape, but the danger is far from over. Now, Vaelstrum sails into the Riftlands, a treacherous expanse of ever-shifting dark energy, ancient and deadly ruins, and colossal monsters that roam the skies. The city’s hope rests on finding the fabled Gate, said to lead to Eden, a land of peace and safety, and perhaps a chance to finally rest from endless flight.
