    Summary

    The Stalegor Empire, an absolute juggernaut from the eastern continent, or so the history books would tell.
    For centuries, the House of Goetia ruled from towers of obsidian and gold, speaking a language of divine detachment while the world below slowed to a crawl. They said the Empire was eternal. They said the "High Goetia" tongue was the only voice God understood. They were wrong.
    History teaches us that "too big to fail" is a myth whispered by those about to fall. Every empire has a sunrise, and every empire has a guttering, bloody dusk.
    This is the chronicle of the Red Winter. It is the story of a Prince who dreamed of stars, a Princess raised in a cage of ice, and the "Gutter-Tongue" revolutionaries who decided that the price of bread was worth more than the life of a Tsar. From the mutiny on the Potemkin to the fire in the Siverian snow, we witness the violent rebirth of a nation—and the thousands of lives ground into the soot of progress.
    In the end, only one name remains whispered in the archives of the survivors. Only one ghost escaped the fire to see the world that came after.
    This is the story of the fall of an Empire, the fire of a Revolution, and the girl who shouldn't have survived it.
