       Current Story: Smoke of Revolution

Smoke of Revolution Banner

Smoke of Revolution is the current ongoing storyline set within the Wardokverse's A Place Beyond the Light series. The story follows the chaotic, brutal, and rapidly industrializing conflict within the Kingdom of Ardenia.

After a devastating civil war twelve years prior, Ardenia now faces threats from all sides: the fanatic Eclipse Cult spreading corruption from the Roake mines, and a full-scale invasion by the Albion Empire seeking to claim the continent's rich Lumite resources. Amidst this turmoil, an otherworlder named Asep—armed with modern engineering knowledge, zero magical affinity, and a desperate craving for tobacco—joins the Castalia Mercenary Company. Together with rogue alchemists, runaway nobles, and fractured beastkin tribes, they must drag a medieval world kicking and screaming into the industrial age to survive the encroaching darkness.

       Castalia Mercenary Company

Based in the trade town of Loriana, the Castalia Mercenary Company is a highly disciplined private military organization led by Commander Zachary Valente. Born from the ashes of the Ardenian Civil War, Castalia operates with a strict code of honor. They are currently the vanguard defending Ardenia against the Children of The Eclipse and the Albion Empire, forming the "Coalition of the Unwilling" and ushering in an era of magi-mechanical warfare through their highly chaotic R&D Division.
