A return to Wildemount for Caleb and Beau

Set after the Mighty Nein’s adventures, the novel brings Caleb Widogast and Beauregard Lionett back to the Empire they once called home. Their paths converge around the Cerberus Assembly and its surviving founder, Ludinus Da’leth: Caleb accepts an offer to investigate him, while Beau turns to infiltration amid the challenge of settling into domestic life. The conflict is tied to the history of their homeland, placing the pair against an institution the description frames as more deeply rooted than a foe they can simply fight. The book connects stories from Critical Role’s second and third campaigns.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • For Critical Role readers interested in the Mighty Nein’s story beyond the campaign’s conclusion.
  • For fans of Caleb Widogast and Beauregard Lionett.
  • For fantasy readers drawn to arcane threats, political intrigue, and a return to an established fictional world.

Book overview

Return to Wildemount with this first-of-its-kind official sequel to the hit Mighty Nein campaign from Critical Role, exploring the fates of "Empire Kids" Caleb Widogast and Beauregard Lionett.

The adventures of the Mighty Nein have ended.

With the Cloven Crystals hidden and Uk'otoa once again imprisoned, all that's left for the Mighty Nein is to settle back into their well-earned retirements. For some, this means peace and solitude; for others, a recommitment to unmitigated chaos. And for Caleb Widogast and Beauregard Lionett, it marks a return to the empire they once called home.

But ancient, arcane threats still fester in Wildemount: the Cerberus Assembly and its only living founder, the calculating and secretive Ludinus Da'leth. When an old friend offers Caleb a chance to investigate Ludinus, he can't help but take it, even if it means betraying those he once held dear. And as Beau struggles to settle into domesticity, a good infiltration is the perfect distraction.

The Cerberus Assembly is unlike any foe the Empire Kids have faced before, rooted into the history of their homeland. It's not an evil that can be pummeled into submission--but that doesn't mean they can't try.

Written by Hugo, Nebula, and Ignyte Award-nominated author Nibedita Sen, Children of Empire ties together the stories of Campaigns Two and Three of hit series Critical Role, complete with intrigue, machinations, and the occasional fist fight.
