THE FOLIOS
ordered as the fold orders the telling
FOLIO IOCCUPIED · LIVING STILL
Alca, the World
The stage of this war is also its first casualty: a world that breathes, mothers, remembers, and where the invader cuts deepest, splits with rage.
SOVEREIGN WORLD · WOUNDED
FOLIO IIENTRENCHED
The Ode
An ode is a song of praise; that is the name the invaders carry, and what they brought was a song that makes a people forget.
INVADING POWER · SKY-BORNE · UNBROKEN
FOLIO IIIUNBROKEN
The Gaunting Spellsong
The Ode fell upon Dendria in a single night, and Midrath's waiting armies never struck a blow: the spellsong silenced all others.
WORKING OF THE ODE · CHARM OF HOLLOWING
FOLIO IVONE ASHORE
The Envoys
Drowned as witch-children, stolen as conscripts, thrown from the sky at the last — and still a blue arm washed ashore to take up Alca's keeping.
WYLD ORDER · SCATTERED
FOLIO VWITHDRAWN
The Fey
Before mankind raised its first roofbeam the Fey kept Alca's balance; since the Felling they are said to be gone beyond the veil, and their surest trace above it is the blue arm the Envoy wears.
ELDER KINDRED · VEILED
FOLIO VIOCCUPIED · CHARTED
Midrath, the Northern Isle
Every fable yet sung is sung on one isle: Midrath, the northern shore where the sea set the Envoy down and the Ode set their machines.
ISLE OF ALCA · OCCUPIED
FOLIO VIIGROWING
The Nightfold
Upon the fabled Silvern Sea there is a fold in the night where the dead keep the hearth warm, the forge lit, and one place set for a living Envoy.
HIDDEN SANCTUARY · ON THE SILVERN SEA
FOLIO VIIIGATHERING
The Ancestors
Answer a dead soul's story and it follows you home: the Nightfold's household is built one Fable at a time.
SPECTRAL KIN · GATHERED TO THE NIGHTFOLD
FOLIO IXONE REMAINS
The Pensives
An order spent lifetimes writing Midrath down, and the enemy burned it: what remains is one ghost, one quill, and smoke that refuses to forget.
SCHOLAR ORDER · BURNED · ONE REMAINS
FOLIO XHUNTED · THREE FREED
The Omen Beasts
They are not monsters but hostages: Alca's eldest wards, chained by the Ode, freed one fable at a time.
WARDS OF THE WORLDFLESH · HUNTED
FOLIO XICAPTIVE · VOICE IMMINENT
Alora, Empress of Eldveil
She armed the first Envoys with weapons made of her own body, and they returned them sharp end first.
FEY SOVEREIGN · CAPTIVE
FOLIO XIIAT LARGE · IMMINENT
Tempest Bayor
Every Envoy's arm runs blue, old as Alcan stone; his runs scarlet, and it carries the enemy's banner.
TEMPEST OF THE ODE · ENVOY TURNED
FOLIO XIIIIMMINENT
The Vadagar Pact
The Ode has spent a war making monsters of Midrath's living things; at TennoCon 2026 the makers announced the arm by which an Envoy may become one.
