Artist commentary for The Earthen Scar:

Thomas Ferkol: (Bandcamp about blurb)

(Read snippets of the story by clicking on each track)

The first album of a series, THE EARTHEN SCAR follows a young mage, Annette, and her bird-like guardian, Corvus, as they traverse a nation at war with itself. Spawned from the inner state (Alacastor) capital known as The Spire, state mages have developed a "plague" of undeath through magic, spreading it radially from the center of the continent in an effort to bring renewal and eternal life. The Outer States do what they can to keep the "Miasma," or so the plague has been dubbed, from encroaching further, conjoining their military into one large force to isolate it within the state of Alacastor. Weeks prior to word of the plague reaching the Outer States, Annette awakens one day to find her parents, state-independent mages, gone without a word, leaving her with just a business ledger and their mute assistant, Corvus, an artificial human. Using the small black book, the pair seek to discover her parents' whereabouts, why they left, and who created the plague which seems to scar even the earth itself.
