Travel. Trade. Forge an empire.
El’sor, the Kingdom of Wishes. Under the golden desert sun, anything is possible. Anything can be bought…for the right price.
Sera Moonglow doesn’t have a normal family. In tunnels deep under the city, they scavenge and steal. It’s a den of thieves, but that lifestyle is at an end. They’re going into business.
After a chance encounter with the spirit of an ancient merchant, Sera gains access to untold power…but only if she can learn to wield it. Opening a fruit stand in the Grand Bazaar seems like a good start.
Backed by a kobold moneylender, she’ll journey the six sands. She’ll explore ruins, trade artifacts, upgrade her shop, and acquire the help of a very slimy, jiggly pet.
But under the surface, there’s something more. Rumors of a dark, growing power. A mystery and a disappearance.
This is how it begins.
A merchant’s life.
