Did someone call for a badass mage to stop petty nobles from squabbling and face the real threat—unbridled Chaos? In a world where the noble elite are supposed to fend off the threat of terrifying Chaos but instead engage in pointless, petty squabbles, young mage Siluca Meletes dreams of bringing justice to the land. War is coming to Siluca and Theo's domain, and they have only the barest hope of stopping it. Margrave Marrine Kreische, the leader of the Factory Alliance, is coming, and she's bringing The Dragoon, an otherworldly power that makes her army even more formidable. Theo can counter her with The Patriot, but will it be enough? The fate of the domain rests in the balance.
