Exalted Fate

Eric Grayson survived his first few months in the Empire with a mixture of clever spellwork, beautiful and competent allies, and a lot of improvisation. Now officially an Exalted Lord, he's navigating noble society, attending classes at the Imperial College, and refurbishing the House of Stars into a home. The Emperor has taken notice, and when the ruler of the Empire you are currently in sends a summons, saying no isn’t really an option. Especially not when you're hiding a few dangerous secrets, like being from another world. The Empire marches forward. The dark secrets in the dungeon grow, and the veil between reality and the Sea of Chaos thins.
