The former Empire capital ship Renown is now the Black Rat, a privateer vessel, following a successful mutiny. An ill-considered act of piracy and the events of its aftermath almost provoke a conflict between nations, leading the Black Rat and her crew to be banished from their adopted state. Seeking somewhere else to call home amongst the Factions of the egg-shaped world of Erdreja, the leader of another nation offers citizenship if the Black Rat can prove her worth in a series of challenges. Unbeknownst to her crew, one who bears them ill-will is following their every move and plotting their destruction. Beset by trials both magical and mundane, the Black Rat prowls the southern oceans, an unwitting pawn in a shadow war where neither friends, nor enemies, nor allies are what they appear to be. Natural forces, elemental powers and creatures from the deep assail her. In the fantastical world of Erdreja, where magic is commonplace, gunpowder does not exist and the most advanced science is alchemy, will the Black Rat survive the machinations and manipulations of Factions on the brink of war, that her crew may find the homeland they so desire?

"It seems that the Satanists have won, doesn't it? Everything has been turned upside down. The world is frolicking within the death throes of the new age. It's an era of depravity, insolence, and evaporated dreams that have turned into nightmares. The Godless gorge themselves on an unwary comatose public, infatuated with reckless and vain desires, the war has begun. The 7 realms have been infiltrated by demonic generals and Satanic soldiers. All facets of life have been confiscated. Economies, traditions, entertainment, and teaching institutions have been taken over and mutated into something sinister and without mercy. Cities that were once the pearls of the old world have become nothing but ruins of smoke, poverty, and dilapidated infrastructures. Nothing was the same after Babylonia the Great waged a nuclear war on it's rivals.....and even before the Greatest War Waged, the world showed signs of madness and confusion. The GWW was mentioned by the religious scholars of the old world, Armageddon or Malhama Al Kubra, was prophesied by messengers of GOD in periods of time forgotten and lost. Only a few remained vigilant and faithful towards GOD, the balance of the world fell into the clutches of a Satanic regime determined to destroy the essential core of man. Within these perilous times the emergence of the Anti-Christ took center stage. The One-Eyed Chief deceiver became the prominent influencer for the detrimentally lost. The engine of evil. The demonic forces beckoned this diabolical leader's arrival......and when he arrived he unleashed his baggages of debauchery and hatred towards humans. The world was in complete chaos and division..." Although, the Light of the Ineffable can never be extinguished, this is a spiritual law. The demonic insurgence couldn't anticipate the resistance that took place. The psychological nets of stupidity and vanity were supposed to suppress the citizens of the 7 realms...but somehow a band of good humans broke through the indoctrination programs of Babylonia the Great. Some said that they were led by Angels. Some rumors suggested that they were the literal moving hand of GOD. Whatever the gossip, the Satanic generals couldn't have fathomed that there would be a counter force so efficient and surgical in their executions. This is a story of perseverance and an example of the human potential when unity is the defining factor.
