This exclusive bonus content offers a deeper glimpse into the world of The Chained Prince. Set in Aetheris — once the glittering heart of fae learning, trade, and power — the city has now fallen under the iron rule of the Arcanum, becoming the seat of the human-led New Dominion.

Once the glittering heart of fae learning, trade, and magic, Aetheris now stands as the seat of power for the human-led New Dominion. Under the iron rule of the Arcanum, the fae who once filled its streets have been forced into the slums, their presence reduced to whispers in the shadows. All the while, the city is slowly being strangled by the encroaching Shadowed Veil — a creeping darkness that no wall or power can hold back.

The Shadowed Veil is a towering wall of darkness that looms over the black waters of the Shadowed Sea. No one knows where it came from or why it exists, but the fae in the slums whisper that it’s a remnant of the war that toppled their king and tore their people from power. On nights when the mist thickens and spills into the streets, misfortune follows. Children waste away with fever. Loved ones vanish without a trace. And when hunger, sickness, or loss strike, the fae lay the blame at the feet of the Shadowed Veil.
