EMINENCE IN SHADOW LIGHT NOVEL HC (2025)

A mysterious cabal called the Thirteen Nightblades has been running things in the Midgar Kingdom from the shadows, and its members have concealed all manner of crimes through their connections to the Cult of Diablos. How impressi-no, how terrible. These dastardly nobles commit so many evil deeds, and yet justice always evades them. That's when a serial killer known only as "Jack the Ripper" appears, plunging the corrupt capital into chaos! In order to eradicate evil, an even greater evil is needed...

All is well at the Midgar Academy for Dark Knights, but then something wicked suddenly draws near: The students are vanishing one by one-even Cid's older sister Claire! Zeta of the Seven Shadows sets off to investigate while Cid and Alexia embark for Claire's room where they find...ancient scripts, a cool magic circle, and spells that seem like they have great meaning and yet absolutely no meaning whatsoever?!
