Scoundrels!

"The most beautiful of ends are often paved in gruesome beginnings." Lawless are the seas of Osgara. The lay of the land has led scholars to marginalise the impact of the sea upon its various realms and geopolitical struggles. Which in turn has left this watery realm an unruly one, where the reach of one's blade governs the efficacy of one's mandates. In such a place, where even the sea itself can be treacherous, only ruthless fools, and desperate brigands thrive.

Even in such a climate, three powers competed to rule the seas, but the realm of scoundrels would not be so easily tamed. How then, could a noble woman fleeing heartbreak with nothing to her name rise to the mantle of The Queen of Scoundrels? What purpose must have possessed her to lead a life of treachery and cutthroat misdeeds? On her road to becoming one of the major forces in this struggle over the waves.

Find out more about Phatasma in this novella set in the year 482 F.O. at the very start of her rise to prominence. Uncover her ambitions, her struggle, and how one man inadvertently captured the heart of the Queen of Scoundrels.

An adventure at sea and in the lawless lands of The Gaudy Coast that seeks to blend elements of fantasy with the much beloved mad tales of pirates, corsairs, and scoundrels at sea!
