The sea is turning to stone, and only a map of obsidian can unlock the truth. Lyra Solari was once the kingdom’s most celebrated cartographer, until she dared to suggest the royal maps were a lie. Now a disgraced exile living on the edge of the Shattered Sea—a vast, crystalline wasteland where the water is hardening into salt—she discovers an artifact that changes everything: an ancient map made of black glass pointing to the legendary Glass Archipelago. Driven by the need for vindication and the hope of saving a world threatened by a looming solar flare, Lyra assembles a crew of outcasts. Together with a broken engineer, a nimble thief, and a haunted mercenary, she sets sail across the freezing tides. But they are not alone. A fanatic Inquisitor follows their wake, determined to keep the past buried at any cost. As the expedition reaches the heart of the archipelago, they realize the islands are not mere landmasses, but the gears of a planet-sized clockwork machine. With the salt-tides rapidly solidifying and time running out, Lyra must solve the puzzles of a vanished civilization to restart the world’s heartbeat.
