Revolution has broken out across Europe. Kings and emperors have been overthrown. In Britain, the establishment has faced down the non-violent Chartist movement. But revolutionaries still plot to subvert the Chartist movement and overthrow the monarchy. The leading agitator has been identified and has gone on the run. He has been cornered on several occasions but each time he has managed to escape. The Guild of Magicians has been asked to hunt him down. But the agitator is said to be a magic user himself. If the Guild locate him, will he use magic to escape once again?

Britain’s factories are dangerous places. Accidents are frequent and casualties are high. Factory workers, angry at these deaths, riot in protest. Many of them sympathise with the revolutionaries. Will they intercede to protect the revolutionaries?

In London Ada, Countess of Lovelace, is using Mr. Babbage’s Analytical Engine in a project to calculate the progress of storms at sea. If she can succeed, her warnings may save countless lives. Her initial attempts have been promising. But if she makes too many errors, the government will withdraw its support. She believes that a powerful storm is approaching Britain. She has decided to warn as many people as possible. If she is correct, her attempts will be vindicated. A failure may destroy the project. But she feels honour-bound to go ahead.
