Children of the Halo The Engines of Creation

A thousand years have passed since the signing of the Pact: an historic agreement between the nations of the Pactlands to work for the betterment of the whole. But in recent years, the Empire of Vector has been growing more bold, submitting a claim for the long-contested Disputed Lands. When a young and inexperienced noblewoman ventures into the anarchic territories the residents call the Free Lands in an effort to discover what Vector is plotting, the last thing she expected to find was a City of Wonders.

On a fateful summer morning, the Vancouver Island town of Ladysmith, British Columbia finds itself and its very residents thrust sideways from the world they know to the medieval Pactlands: a world ruled by a shadowy council of mages and governed by the laws of steel and influence. Cut off from their own world, the residents of this small cottage town are thrust knee-deep into the political, humanitarian and martial turmoil suffered by the residents of the Free Lands.

Staring down the threat of the Vectoran claimant force, the hidden machinations of the High Magus Council, and desperately seeking the allies and resources they need to maintain their way of life, the residents of Ladysmith must use everything they have at their disposal to survive and claim their own place in a world they were not born to.

Magic, intrigue and eight thousand Canadians. What could go wrong?

Updates every Tuesday and Thursday on Royal Road.

  Welcome to the WorldAnvil page for Children of the Halo. It is within these pages that you can discover the history and lore of the Pactlands, and quite possibly uncover secrets hidden even to those who think they know everything there is to know about the world of Eiden.   It's important to note that this site should be considered a constant Work in Progress. This site is meant to chronicle the deeper lore, mysteries and details in such a way as cannot easily be covered in the book. I shall endeavour to try and keep it updated with information keeping up with the release of chapters on Royal Road, but only if there is a continued interest.   So if you're interested in learning more about the world of Children of the Halo, let me know by creating a WorldAnvil account and becoming a Wanderer, by leaving comments on Royal Road, following me on Twitter and letting me know, or by becoming a patron.   Happy travels!
