In 1759, the passage of Halley's Comet causes a catastrophic event that separates the New World from the Old. A new mountain range emerges in the Mid-Atlantic, and ships can no longer navigate between the two worlds, with many disappearing in the attempt. The comet also unleashes magical forces, leading slaves to harness African witchcraft, bringing forth monsters into America. Native tribes follow suit, while some European settlers blend Old World technology with sorcery. The Atlantic is plagued by kraken, revenants haunt Jamaica, and various supernatural entities roam the streets of New York, creating chaos as magic spreads uncontrollably.

They face the daunting task of uniting politically behind the young English prince Edward, the last royal bloodline in a world transformed by the Sundering.
