Artifice: Episode Three

The invading Kierdan fleet had been vanquished, and were now in full retreat back across the sea.
Despite the victory, many questions remain unanswered. Where did they get such devastating weapons? What were they after? Who put them up to this? Why did they risk so much to apparently gain nothing?
Before the Nebar Cluster can assemble a punitive expedition, a new threat emerges. A massive floating structure has been spotted heading straight for the city of Iathera.
Duty-bound to aid their ally, the Cluster must delay any notion of retaliation, deploying their fleet to intercept the intruder.
Will it be enough?
In the face of a potential invasion, the Iatheran Intendant Yazril calls for reinforcements from the distant town of Freewater.
John, the displaced visitor from Earth, hedges their bets by constructing weapons never before seen in that world.
