The Hidden Empire

ÒWhere did you find this bottle with a note from Amonwulf?Ó Ular asked, wide-eyed. ""I found it washed up on the shore while fishing at the ocean,Ó Sofronius said. ÒItÕs meaningless, though.Ó ÒBefore you Tempests get all excited,Ó Talura warned, ÒYou should know that these things pop up all over Diaxophas these days. You guys are celebrities. That note was probably written by a kid.Ó ÒYou said that the bottle is meaningless, but you were wrong,Ó Ular said. ÒThis bottle is the key.Ó ÒThe key to what?Ó Grazio asked. ÒTo Amonwulf being alive,Ó Ular said. When a message in a bottle is found by the Nysterion, the Tempests believe that it is from their friend, Amonwulf, who was believed to have died years ago. Tracing AmonwulfÕs movements through multiple countries, disguises, prison breaks, lost cities, secret societies, and conspiracies, the Tempests and Nysterion join forces to find out what really happened to their long lost friend.
