BOOK 01: SLEEPING GOD
"At the dawn of things, in the eon known as the Whole, Iyetra was a complete, harmonious world and its inhabitants lived with the blessings of the gods, watched over under the authority of the Advent."
Tela Niala is a newly-ascended Advent journeyman, part of the rare subset of individuals gifted with the ability to practice and control magic. Regarded by her people as leaders and politicians, the Advent are relied upon to keep society functioning properly in the centuries after the cataclysmic Shattering destroyed their world.
Sent on a diplomatic dispatch to negotiate a treaty with a foreign government, Tela soon learns dark things have been set into motion outside of her knowledge. When a primeval enemy of demonic origin appears and threatens the lives of millions, Tela must come into her own powers not just to survive but to escape and warn her own people of the slumbering evil that's reawakening.

When ancient enemies threaten her mission and her quest for vengeance against the frightening Harbinger, Tela will have to draw on all her strength to survive.

BOOK 04: INCURSION
Almost a year after the events of Iyetra – Book 01: Sleeping God, Tela's struggle against the Harbinger and his cultists reaches her front door as the corrupted humans lay siege to Triyard. In an effort to prevent the return of a goddess imprisoned thousands of years ago, she must fight alongside the Matriarch to save her people from destruction.
Along the way, she will learn more about the jackal god's true nature and uncover the enigmatic Matriarch's past. Struggling against an external threat and internal secrets, Tela is at the epicentre of the conflict and the only one capable of interrupting the Harbinger's foul designs.
BOOK 05: AFTERMATH'S DAWN
It's been five years since the disappearance of the Matriarch. With the siege of Triyard and the mass evacuation of its citizens, the Consortium has been plunged into chaos and its standing in the Charted Known diminished considerably. This loss has prompted a number of floaters to secede from the ancient alliance and declare themselves the 'Freestates,' a loose confederacy of magic-incapable individuals who seek to challenge the Advent's longstanding supremacy through means both economic and diplomatic. Sabas Yan, an Advent mercenary whose skills are often utilised for thieving instead of warfare, has accepted a job offer from an anonymous client that sends him breaking into one Freestate manufacturing centre. While there, however, he stumbles onto evidence that the fledgling coalition might be involved in designs that are more dire than they've admitted publicly.
Without the Matriarch to vouch for him, Hemeth's position as General of the Consortium's armies has been terminated. The remains of its leadership have been plunged into in-fighting and political posturing as its Senators vie with one another for control of the alliance's remaining territory. Fixated on the disappearance of Tela, Hemeth has spent much of the time since her fight with the Harbinger focusing on ways to recover Triyard and with it the nexusgate that could send him back to her last location. Intent on rescuing her, Hemeth embarks on an experiment that may lead to a means of ridding Triyard of the creatures that have surrounded it.

BOOK 06: OBLIVION PRECIPICE
After discovering plans that the Freestates were intending on launching an attack against the Consortium from their facility on Ettad, Sabas Yan rushed back to Advent territory to warn the Senate of the threat. Coming down from their mad escape and the revelation that one of his companions — the strange girl Anahine, narrowly rescued from the experiments the Freestates had engaged on her — was more dangerous than he could have first imagined, it soon becomes clear that the plot against the Advent involves more hands than the separatists alone.
Shot down by an Imperium planter ship on the debut of Hemeth's grand plan to rescue Triyard from the creatures that still occupied it, the former general awakes with no idea of his location or the safety of his crew. But he will soon come face to face with an enemy more worrying than the Imperium or the backstabbers of the Advent Senate, whose actions have the chance to destroy everything they know.
