It all began with one simple, little word: "No." For Polonius and Lady Penelope, openly defying the Sovereign Emperor forever changed their lives -- instantly transforming them from royalty into renegades. With little forethought and no escape plan, their chances of getting out of Sovereign Capitol City were slim. But, even as Sovereign forces were closing in around them, the Neathergardens discovered they had the most unlikely of friends in the Order of the Crimson Meridian -- a secret society of scholars dedicated to preserving humanity's greatest artistic, scientific, and technological achievements. When the Order's true purpose was revealed to them, Polonius and Lady Penelope came to understand the real meaning of the Order's ritualistic salutation: "The duality of light; the singularity of darkness." #steampunk #theairshipandalusia
