Quote:Eric Grayson survived his first few months in the Empire with a mixture of clever spellwork, beautiful and competent allies, and a lot of improvisation.
Now officially an Exalted Lord, he's navigating noble society, attending classes at the Imperial College, and refurbishing the House of Stars into a home.
The Emperor has taken notice, and when the ruler of the Empire you are currently in sends a summons, saying no isn't really an option.
Especially not when you're hiding a few dangerous secrets, like being from another world.
The Empire marches forward.
The dark secrets in the dungeon grow, and the veil between reality and the Sea of Chaos thins.
