A Silence Falling Dark and Deep

A Heavy Cost

The Southern Echo has returned from the Forbidden Sea with a relic from the gods, but her crew paid a terrible price for both. Rocked by betrayal and loss, Nate Lowwind and his friends are left with broken pieces to pick up and reforge. Nate wants nothing more than to find a way forward and help his friends heal, but his plans may need to wait. There’s trouble on the winds, and they have reached all the way to Spider’s Nest.

A Desperate Plea

When quartermaster Daxton Malatide learns that Spider’s scouts and informants are disappearing from the seas, he knows that danger is rearing its head, but so is opportunity. Spider’s desperation leads to an offer that is in the crew’s best interest to take, and Dax convinces a reluctant Captain Iris Arani to accept. But as the Southern Echo sails into imperial territory and discovers what’s really happening in the Common Sea, Dax finds his friendship with Iris at odds with his pledge to the crew.

An Unraveling World

While Dax struggles with a critical choice between his loyalties and his duties, Nate finds that what he wants may not matter in the face of what needs to be done to keep his friends safe. When danger comes crashing down around the Southern Echo, dire choices will be made. Some may prove unforgivable.
