There are places where treaties are signed.
And then there is Veythra, where breaking one may unmake you.
Welcome to the City of Diplomacy. The City of Spies. The Silent Table.
Here, every power of consequence keeps an embassy. Spies trade secrets in salons, assassins observe ancient rules of professional courtesy, and oathwrights spend entire careers studying pronouns because a badly chosen word can destroy a kingdom.
At the heart of it all stand the Custodians of Ash and Glass—mages who have spent millennia hunting powers they believe no mortal should ever possess.
Naturally, they have accumulated the largest collection of forbidden magic in the world.
They call that protection.
Their critics have other words for it.
And beneath an obsidian dome built from the remains of two annihilated cities waits the Silent Table, where promises become more than promises.
It will enforce exactly what you said.
Not what you meant.
Welcome to Veythra. Choose your words carefully.
