The first bell broke before anyone could ring it. Then someone started moving a mountain. Not a particularly promising beginning for the people living beneath it. High above an ancient city, under an ocean suspended in the sky, Aevran Sol is having a disagreement with an old acquaintance named Rhovel. Aevran would prefer that the city remain standing. Rhovel would prefer to see what happens if it does not. They have known each other for a very long time, and neither is particularly inclined to concede an argument. Unfortunately, this disagreement involves rather more than words. There will be extraordinary magic, weapons with histories older than kingdoms, and the occasional demonstration of why being immensely powerful does not mean being right. Or invincible. But this is not only a story about someone who can stand against impossible things. Long before the battles, before the centuries of knowledge, before Aevran became someone capable of arguing with beings that treat mountains as interesting objects, there was a boy with a family, a curious mind, and rather more questions than his parents probably appreciated. And that part of his life matters just as much. The Infinite Has Edges follows different periods of one extraordinary life through a vast world of magic, ancient mysteries, dangerous creatures, remarkable peoples, friendships, mistakes, discoveries, and consequences that do not conveniently disappear when the fighting ends. There will be adventure. There will be battles. There will be quieter moments worth remembering. And there will be questions. Quite a few questions, actually. After all, even the infinite must have its limits. Finding them might be the easy part. Welcome to the story. Loreforged

The city of Letcham was lorded over by a vampiric ruling class from Castle Sangmont. However, twenty years ago they had been massacred, and in their stead the church took hold of the city. Their religion was less about gods and more a worship of human kind's advancement and, when the plague swept the city, bloodshed. This plague was not a normal sickness, it turned folks ravenous. They acted more like beasts than men when infected, so they were called as much. One day a young woman named Mayme was sent to get supplies from the city in her ailing father's stead. The only issue was that she was the daughter of a leech of Sangmont. A monster the church would not take too kindly too-- nor would the man in Letcham who made it his life's mission to slay the rest of her wretched kind. The very man she was forced to rely upon when she got trapped outside with the beasts by the city's nightly lockdown.
