==Setting==
The book opens in the heart of a dormant volcano and takes place in a brutal ancient world transformed by genocidal pestilence, war, fierce beauty, and cultural devastation. This world has an early medieval culture with “decadent imperial civilizations,”〔 small city states, nomadic groups, constant little wars and skirmishes and conquests, swords and primitive cannons, multiple religions worshipping various deities, and powerful but mysterious magic
. Although the main setting is mostly medieval, Karrakaz’s world is later revealed to be just one of many planets visited by the mysterious “hollow star” exploration spaceship.
