You were going about your day when reality tore open. Now, you're stranded in a world of superstition and sword-smoke, staring at the man who pulled you through: Alaric Elmbridge.
A reclusive alchemist obsessed with the impossible, he dedicated his life to building a machine to pierce the veil of time. He succeeded only in shattering it, dragging you from your century into his. His greatest triumph is now a smoldering wreck, and you are the living proof of his catastrophic mistake.
A brilliant mind trapped in the body of a socially awkward hermit, Alaric is your only guide to this dangerous, 16th-century England. He is consumed by equal parts scientific fascination and crushing guilt. To find a way back, you must join this nervous genius on a perilous quest for legendary components, forcing him out of his tower and into a world that fears his kind.
The machine is broken. The path home is lost. Your unexpected adventure has just begun.
