By: Toru Toba

IN THE UNEXPLORED REACHES OF THE OCEAN Clear skies. Deep-blue sea. Tropical sun baking the sandy beach. Wein finds himself whisked away to the Patura islands in the tropical south, trying to make the best use of his access to the port in Soljest. These islands are at the top of his list of potential trade partners, and if he doesn’t come back to Natra with a deal in hand…let’s just say his monthly expenses might run him completely dry. It seems, however, that the gods are not on his side: One little slip-up lands him behind bars in the island nation. The only silver lining, it seems, is that his neighbor the next cell over seems like an interesting guy…who might have some-thing to do with the hunt for the Rainbow Crown, a piece of treasure housing magic that can control all of Patura!

By: Toru Toba

A KINGDOM DIVIDED... The trouble in the Empire has finally subsided, but that doesn’t mean Wein can rest easy. Relations between the East and West are more strained than ever, and both sides are vying for Natra’s allegiance. Joining with one will make an enemy of the other, a decision that will surely lead to war. And things aren’t exactly peaceful at home, either. An independence movement is brewing in Natra, and Ninym’s been caught in the center of it, stirring up further chaos. Can Wein keep his kingdom together long enough to shepherd it into this new era? Is he even the right person for the job?

By: Toru Toba

TURNING TRADITIONS ON THEIR HEAD At the behest of Holy Elite Agata, Wein visits the Ulbeth Alliance, a nation made of four city-states perpetually locked in a power struggle. While Agata asks for assistance unifying the nation, Wein suspects the man is after something a little less altruistic. Still, he goes along with it and launches a campaign that will disrupt long-standing traditions and upset the delicate balance of power in Ulbeth. But when have such paltry concerns ever stopped the prince of Natra?

THE WAR FOR SUCCESSION! The fight for control of the Earthworld Empire is nearing its climax, and although Lowellmina is the clear front-runner, there’s concern about a future with her at the helm. The nation has never known an Empress before, and some aren’t so eager for change. Worse yet, her old friends Glen and Strang have each allied with one of her brothers. Amid mounting tensions and intrigue, Wein is called to meet with the Leader of Eastern Levetia, but is that the only reason he’s heading to the Empire? Perhaps the genius prince has his own designs for the throne!

By: Toru Toba

Imperial Prince Demetrio and his advisers are stumped. And for good reason, too. Wein, the Crown Prince of Natra, has joined their meeting, and he wasn’t really invited. Wein is technically only here to return a favor to Imperial Princess Lowellmina, who can’t stand to watch her three brothers rip each other apart for the throne. Somehow or other, he finds himself teamed up with Demetrio, who seems like he’s the least likely of the three to become the next emperor...

IT AINT EASY BEING A GOOD BROTHER!It’s time for the three Imperial princes to meet and argue their way to the throne in the city of merchants, Mealtars. Sounds like a good opportunity for Wein to take a breather since this gathering obviously has nothing to do with him...until Imperial Princess Lowellmina goes out of her way to invite him to Mealtars, too. But Wein’s already learned that it’s always better to decline her offers. Turns out, things would have gone smoother if he’d just attended, because now he has to deal with a whole new problem: his sister, Falanya, going in his stead!

Snakes, Birds and Dreams

By: Toru Nakamura PhD

Snakes. Birds and Dreams: Gobekli Tepe and Caduceus By: Toru Nakamura PhD An international economist, Toru Nakamura, PhD has served in consulting and executive roles advising many private and public organizations around the world. Sharing a wide-ranging view is necessary to the future of our troubled world. However, too many social scientists have become increasingly specialized, paying little attention to what other disciplines are discovering and are losing a humanist perspective. In the process, they ignore the imagination and the importance of virtues like love or trust to bind us together. As the twenty-first century began, Dr. Nakamura began to visit some ruins of the world. He was awestruck at the prehistoric ruins called Göbekli Tepe, which was unearthed in the mid-1990s in southeastern Turkey. Later, Dr. Nakamura learned that the Greek symbol of the caduceus, a wand topped with wings and two entwined snakes, likely originated at this remarkable prehistoric site. There, as the last Ice Age was ending, the human imagination that led to the birth of civilization burst out.

By: Toru Toba

TROUBLE AHEAD The Gathering of the Chosen. Prince Wein inexplicably lands himself an invitation to the conference featuring some of the most influential figures from the western side of the continent. Obviously, it has to be a ploy to make him sever ties with the Empire in the East, and it wouldn’t be advisable to walk into a trap when he wants to remain neutral... The prince, however, has never been one to heed sound advice! Waltzing headlong into danger, no sooner has Wein set foot in the host city of Lushan than he finds himself framed for the murder of a Holy Elite—and that’s just the beginning of his troubles...!

It ain't easy being a foreign guest...After narrowly dodging a marriage proposal, Prince Wein is accosted by a messenger from the Kingdom of Cavarin, which can only mean bad news...and unfortunately, he's absolutely right! The messenger cordially invites him to the Festival of the Spirit to celebrate the biggest religion in the western side of the continent: the Teachings of Levetia. Oh, and this event just happens to coincide with a gathering for the most influential group in the West, which is also in Cavarin. Either way, it's not an invitation Wein can turn down easily, even though he knows he's just begging for more trouble...!
