The Vibe

Sancia and Clef face something worse than corrupt merchant houses — an ancient consciousness that understands scriving better than anyone alive, and it wants to rewrite reality itself. Bennett escalates from heist to cosmic horror, and the magic system reveals depths that change everything.
