The Citadel
Chief Inspector Achelous Forushen's plans to defend the planet Dianis from extrasolar incursions have come to disaster. The Paleowrights, aided by the Drakan Empire, have attacked to town of Wedgewood and burned the town, destroying the foundry. Extrasolar contractors, the dreaded corsairs, have landed on the planet and are mining aquamarine, killing natives at the first sign of resistance. What Achelous feared the most has happened, and worse, he's been captured by the Paleowrights.
In the Citadel, the matriarch of the Avarian Federation and Marisa of Tivor have come to an uneasy agreement. One wants, and the other needs Achelous back home alive. The matriarch is bound by ULUP laws and perils her own career and power if she helps Marisa. Yet the trader princess holds the key to the Dianis treasures the federation so desperately needs. Marisa can't fight the Paleowrights and Drakan empire with just her doughty Timberkeep allies.
Thwarted from his ultimate goal at Wedgewood, the Paleowright bishop has ordered Achelous taken captive so he can be tortured for retribution and interrogated. Marisa warned Achelous that it could come to this. Now it is up to her to fight the corsairs, rescue Achelous, and stem a Drakan invasion, all the while not trusting the true purpose of the person she needs most.
