The sparks come alive, and the fantasy begins anew.

Last week, we brought together pages from every issue of the first arc for Legends of the Realm. From Providentia to Shadahkerr, Fountaine to Bluvomn. Camriddeon battled Shania, Frangylla, and the very essence of magic itself.

It's been the efforts of six years of art, fantasy, and lore to be tied all together. But at last we have volume one together, and in just two short months, it's going to be available to you, dear reader.

Hey, wait! I already got most of the issues! Should I really get the trade paperback?

Oh, absolutely.

This first journey through Dannisfire, every chapter was always meant to tie into the greater whole. From King Cairn's efforts to construct the Watchtower, to the Machiavellian maneuvers between Olrean and Sevrine. And each of Camriddeon's stops take on an added layer when viewed altogether.

But mostly, this is a tale that we wanted to bring together in its entirety. The Watcher Saga beheld the very nature of Dannisfire. Its wonders, its terrors, and the magical mundanity the mage now finds himself bound up in.

As an added bonus, we are going to be adding a new short story. A coda of sorts, taking place mere moments after the end of issue six. Evan has already completed the artwork and you can check out a sneak preview now.

Volume one of Legends of the Realm is the best way to dive into the world of Camriddeon, and see the next chapter of Arcane Inkdustries! Check out the pre-launch page below, and see you May 9th!
