House Oxbridge · Act One
The Iron Solstice
A warden vanishes. The Crown convenes a Commission. Four houses, one writ, and a truth the record left out.
Join the waiting listThe story
A garrison warden disappears from his post on the northeast road. His second-in-command files a report. The Marshal's office rules desertion. The Queen doesn't believe it.
She forms a Commission, four representatives of the great houses bound by royal writ, and sends them north to find what the report left out.
What Magister-General Irwan Oxbridge finds is not one man's crisis. It is the edge of something organised. Something patient. Something that has been working quietly through ordinary people, through soldiers, scholars, and travelers, long before anyone thought to look.
The Iron Solstice is coming. And somewhere in the south, something is meant to happen when it does.
