The Empire of Forgotten Skies

For centuries, the Eternal Storm ruled the sky—an engineered tempest that erased memory, silenced rebellion, and shaped humanity into obedient shadows. Floating above the mist-covered Shroudlands, the Dominion of Aureith promised protection, purity, and order. But Lyen Astridh, a quiet engineer with a fractured past, discovers a truth the sky was never meant to reveal. The storm is not a natural force. It is a weapon. Driven by unanswered questions about her mother's disappearance and haunted by flashes of forbidden memory, Lyen joins Corvin Dreil, a stubborn but empathetic Groundborn courier who carries the last fragments of the old world. Together, they uncover a conspiracy woven into the very weather: a system designed to erase history itself. As the Dominion tightens its control, Lyen becomes the final link between sky and soil, hunted by the commander who once swore to protect her and guided by a scientist willing to destroy her own creation to save humanity. When the sky begins to fracture and forgotten truths surge back into the world, Lyen must choose what deserves to be remembered—and what must be broken. A story of identity, rebellion, and the courage to hold onto memory, The Empire of Forgotten Skies explores what remains when silence ends and the world begins again.
