The Grand Seaway is a sprawling imperial province spread across a continent-sized archipelago of rival island nations, port towns, and sea-linked enclaves. It feels like many worlds stitched together by trade, diplomacy, and hazard. Some islands hum with steam engines and clockwork cranes, others glow with spells or alien startech, while older realms keep their crowns, temples, and traditions. Every polity depends on the sea, and every port is a doorway to intrigue.
