A shinobi-fantasy world · SIQ Press

History remembers the catastrophe.
It forgot to ask why.

Seiyomi is a world built on a broken promise — four clans, a boundary between the living and the dead that was never meant to last, and three centuries of silence about to run out. No required reading order. Start anywhere.

The world

Four clans. One failing Veil.

Two thousand years ago, something built a boundary between the living and the dead — and then vanished. The four clans who now guard its edges each hold one piece of a craft meant to keep it standing. None of them hold the whole truth.

The Ashlands

Sorei

Soul-flame given form — power borrowed against a life not yet finished spending it.

The Pale Wetlands

Kakurei

They bind the dead and ask what the living have long since refused to answer.

The Deep Canopy

Midori

The forest listens for what shouldn't be quiet — and lately, it keeps hearing it.

The Covenant Cities

Ketsumei

Where the Covenant was written, sealed in stone, and enforced without apology.

The books

Three standalone novels. No fixed order.

Each book is a complete story on its own, set generations apart. Read them in any order — the world rewards it either way.

The Unmarked
