Three Realms, formerly separated by environmental barriers set in place generations ago, have now discovered one another and formed an uneasy alliance. The technological capitalists of Brunwyth seek to exploit the largely unspoiled land of Lorcron, while the subterranean gatherers of knowledge in Nuwthrsh wish only to be left alone. But a young Nuwthrshan scientist claims to have discovered the key to undoing the barriers that still limit travel and trade. When that scientist goes missing, a young woman and a boy--trying only to enjoy a vacation in Lorcron--find themselves drawn into a fathomless conspiracy that spans the Three Realms--and Beyond.
