Emperor of Veridia: the Hearth-Fire (Vol. 103)

Summary

In a forgotten archive deep beneath the city library, a disillusioned scholar who lost his memories discovers a velvet black thread that absorbs all light around it that could disrupt the magical beacons guiding ships through the mist. Pursued by a rogue celestial navigator who seeks to burn the stars, they must race against time before the military vanguard crosses the river border.
