Synopsis
On the bustling docks of San Francisco, Kayne, a skilled Phorate (thief) and framed innocent ex-con, seeks information about a stolen artifact—the Umbramar Amulet-- that could avert a looming catastrophe. Skylla, a daring sea captain and Myrocan with unique magical abilities, is destined to play a pivotal role in a prophetic quest. As their worlds collide, Kayne becomes a stowaway on Skylla's ship as he attempts to unravel the mystery of the stolen artifact and clear his name.
Skylla, driven by a desire to defy fate and prove herself to the Guilds of Chaos, particularly the Arcane Alliance, where most apprentices are privileged, discovers Kayne on her ship and makes him her prisoner.
The journey through an ocean portal to the fantasy realm of Arnexis, where the Guilds of Chaos are headquartered, shoves them into forced proximity, unveiling their shared connection to the magical relic. As tensions rise and sea monsters test their abilities, Kayne and Skylla must navigate off-limits territories, mistaken identities, and false accusations. The ticking time bomb of their quest, coupled with their growing attraction, propels them through a world of shifting allegiances, revealing secrets that may alter the fate of both the mortal and magical realms. In Depths of Chaos, Kayne and Skylla embark on a captivating journey filled with magic, romance, and the whispers of a powerful oceanic destiny.
