    Lord of the Mysteries Volume 5: Red Priest

    by cnwebnovels

    In the tide of steam and machinery, who can reach beyond the ordinary?
    In the mist of history and darkness, who is whispering?

    I woke from the uncanny and opened my eyes upon this world:

    firearms, cannons, great ships, airships, difference engines;
    potions, divination, curses, the Hanged Man, sealed artifacts…

    The light still shines.

    The mystery has never gone far.

    This is the legend of the Fool.
