Soulfire Volume X: The Ruined Abyss

At the bottom of the southern sea lie ruins older than the kingdoms, older than the age that ended them, and something down there is still awake.

It was a king once. An emperor in name; a tyrant in action. It fought a war much like the one now gathering, for reasons much like these, and it has waited a very long time for someone to come asking the same questions.

A masked figure descends into the dark to take what the drowned king guards. What he hears instead is the one thing he has spent his whole life refusing to believe.

Far above, a kingdom dies by inches, and the bargain that might save it carries a price no one has dared say aloud.
