The Wildsea (Wildsea)

Three hundred years ago, the world's empires were toppled by a sea of raging greenery that came from the west. In the present day, the crew of the Rosewind sails the Foxloft and beyond in search of loved ones, memories, and a place to belong.

Starring:

• Ryan as Shard, an Amberclad Ardent who serves as the Rosewind's navigator. He claims the ship talks to him, but we all know that's silly...or is it? Looking to find out what happened to the last crew of the Rosewind.
• Katt as Cookies, a Rootless Tzelicrae who keeps the crew fed with the best dishes this side of the Foxloft. Don't forget to try her "Sleepy Naptime Melon" made with champagne floatmelons! Would really like to know what makes Ardents tick. Metaphysically speaking.
• Tim as Whisper, an Amberclad Gau skilled in hunting the Windsea's many beasts and leviathans. Accompanied by his faithful sporehund, he seeks to find his lost colony.
• Hannah as Echo, a Spit-born Ketra with an eye for treasures of the past. A finder dredger you'll not find, even if nobody's quite sure what an "arborofathometer" is. Searching for her lost master (and exploring as many pre-Verdant ruins as she can along the way).
• Scott as Corin, a Shankling Ironbound keeping the storms tamed and the Rosewind's ceramic batteries charged. All the better to keep the Storm Rail cannon ready to go when it's needed. They seek the sky, with all its wonders and horrors, as they work to achieve a more beautiful avian form.
• Kyle as the Firefly, guiding our crew through tangled bough and branch.
