To Fly the Soaring Tides
This story is a slice of life adventure through the skies.
Sky pirates, beasts, and wicked spellcasters are just a few of the troubles one has to put up with to traverse the soaring tides. They say there are as many islands in the sky as there are stars above, and one determined young sorcerer wants to see them all.
Join Cira on her journey through the clouds as she bumbles around skies unseen, selling services of the sorcerous nature and forging her own path on a most peculiar ship—better known as the Island of Breeze Haven. Upon his passing, her father left this vessel built by his own hands, which he once used to sail the very same skies.
Despite her sheltered upbringing, she’s learned a lot along the way, but every strange new land brings strange new challenges. In an effort to enjoy her life to the fullest and be the best sorcerer she can be, Cira will meet people from the furthest walks of life, accepting the oddest of jobs and occasionally tripping over her father’s footprints of years past, leaving a few of her own along the way.
What mysteries await Cira high above in the endless sea of soaring tides? Scarce more than a brisk whim and the way the wind blows may determine that.
