Aegile takes the fleet south as ash rains down upon them and finds that the king's city has also faced the wrath of the gods and now lies in ruins. What can they do now? They can't go north, south or east; those are the lands of their enemies. They can't stay in the Iron Coast and choke on ash. They must go across the Great Sea to lands heard of through tales of lost merchants blown off course. What lies in these mysterious lands they couldn't even imagine...
