Marleigh is a young thief who takes each day at a time and lives only for the next meal. But soon, he'll find himself involved with something bigger. Something that goes beyond anything he has ever done before. Under the rule of the Empire, a plot to shift the tides of power has been hatched. The current emperor commands the country with an iron fist with his right-hand man, The General of the Storms. No mercy is granted to those who oppose them. The hierarchy is riddled with corruption and the poor are left to fend for themselves. But now, there's a new hope. A new resistance has sprouted and they won't rest until they see the Empire fall. Through a series of seemingly random events, Marleigh finds himself being recruited to the ragtag bunch of individuals who wields the mysterious power of Calamity and who calls themselves The Weatherborns. Will they be able to change the future of the empire or will they find themselves crushed, as everyone who came before them?
