In an endless sea of sand
drifts the Mud Whale, a floating island city of clay and magic. In its
chambers a small community clings to survival, cut off from its own
history by the shadows of the past.
The Mud Whale has finally reached the shores of Amonlogia, but it quickly becomes clear that Sir Rochalízo wasn’t being entirely up-front when he said the people of the Mud Whale would all be welcome. His father the duke has placed harsh conditions on their citizenship, and they only have three days to agree…or face the consequences!

Review:
Back into this series, they have reached Rochalizo's home, Amonlogia.
They're immediately confronted with violence, and then with strict
negotiations that turn out to be not much of a negotiation, really.
It wasn't terribly surprising what Rochalizo did to them, despite
thinking they'd been getting along so well. I can see what a bad
position Rochalizo was in, but he still wasn't very smart about his
choices here. I was really surprised to see what a standing Suou
ended up taking, and was honestly impressed by how strong of a stance
he took. He was put in a bad spot, and he did what he thought was
right, and it makes me a really big fan of his character, honestly.
I'm intrigued and worried by where the plot was going at the end of
the volume. It could go really bad before they get out of this.
A review copy was provided by the publisher, VIZ Media, for an honest review. Thank you so, so much!
