An ongoing series of fantasy adventures, "The Adventures of Solaire '' tells the story of the dread pirate Captain Solaire Ravenheart and his tales all across Lorian, from the steam-powered world of Dinas to the magical superpower of Archone. What follows is every deed of sabotage, back-stabbing, intimidation, piracy, demon-summoning, automaton-killing, government-toppling, crew wrangling, and general defiance he committed in his quest for his ultimate goal: to save his sister River.

After his showdown with Weiss, a mysterious thieves' guild coerces Solaire to follow up on the one promise he can't deliver on: hand over his notes about the Emperor.
