Draw your blade. Fasten your armor. Prepare for war. Seven new tales of harrowing challenges, epic battles, rousing victories, and crushing defeats.

As a student of the prestigious Royal Academy, Clare's work on automatons needs to not only impress her professors but also honor the legacy of her late mother, who wrote the book on humanity's mechanized companions. Clare discovers a hidden recording at home that reveals an inconvenient truth, and now, she believes there's a chance her mother could be alive. This means the police lied to her about her mother's fate. But why? There's only one way to find out.

Assigned alongside the legendary overlord slayer and a half dragon that's all bite and no bark, the group sets off for the hidden kingdom of the fairy peoples. The team's mission? To investigate a gruesome string of unexplained murders. The suspects? Humans, as always. Meeo and her party must prove their innocence and shine light on the true culprits before they're taken by spear and bow to the executioner's square.

Accompanied by an automaton her mother left before her disappearance, Clare has discovered the way into the upper regions of the mysterious and forbidden lower city. But now, encountering a strange new machine that sounds eerily human and claims to know the way down into the lower levels, the real adventure begins. At first, Clare and her assistant hope to advance without notice, but when the automaton army meets their intrusion with more than just hydraulic-assisted, mechanical muscle, they realize they have little choice - cooperate or die an agonizing death.

Decades of deception rule a land built on mystic traditions, shrouded fables, and heroic legends. A village bent by the tyranny of an oppressive overlord rallies behind the single, strong-willed man who can save them from destruction. His name is Ralic, the son of Ralic the 11th and chosen liberator of his people. Armed with the Sword of Destiny, the only weapon powerful enough to destroy the evil overlord, Ralic seeks the hidden, dark castle tucked away in the furthest recesses of a forbidden forest.
