Into the Nanten - The Record of My Exile (Season 1)

Into the Nanten - The Record of My Exile

Into the Nanten is the journal of Marceles na Tetrarch, a man exiled into the world's most hostile jungle in search of a man that he hates who was exiled there 20 years before him. With four companions, Marceles must face bandits, monsters, cannibals, and worse as he tries clear his name through valor in the depths of the fallen Nanten Kingdom.

A failed state, the Nanten Kingdom fell to a series of coups around one hundred years ago. Marceles has been exiled there as punishment for the murder of a woman by the name of Lystra, a crime so severe that it nearly destroyed his order's relationship with the Old Empire. He reached out to every man who owed him his life in hopes of finding help on his mission. Only four responded.

This is their story.

As Marceles survives each day, he often takes the time to draw what he's seen. The illustrations in his journal are not only beautiful on their own, but offer a unique view into a world that we can only see through Marceles' eyes. Into the Nanten includes over 90 full-color images.
