Once magic and science had been fused together by the Artificers, a guild of technicians who were cast out from the empire they had fought so hard to protect. They had created wondrous machines that defied explanation.

As this forgotten technology sparks back to life, sinister figures from the dark past also resurface. With no one left with the knowledge of these fantastical machines, who will be able to stop the chaos they unleash? And who is operating them?

Slade and his young companions find themselves in the middle of a race to find answers, as members of the diabolical Withered Hand lurk through town looking for answers to ancient secrets.

The long awaited saga, Aether Sphere, begins here!
