The Sea of the Unknown lays before us, cold and callous. Behind us stand the comforts of home, the assurance of a path well-trodden. But some of us feel called to something else - something unseen, undefinable. Those hopes and nebulous dreams rest out over the horizon, beyond the chop and spray of the slate-gray sea that crashes at our feet. We know not how to reach those dreams; we know only that we must try.

Deep in the jungles of the Nanten, a cult has risen which threatens the very fabric of the world. Three nations stand poised to resist, if only they can find a way to unite. Marceles may be the key to enacting just such a plan, if only he can overcome his hatred for its mastermind.

Into the Nanten is the journal of Marceles na Tetrarch, a man exiled into the world's most hostile jungle in search of a man he hates, who was exiled there 20 years before him. With four companions, Marceles must face bandits, monsters, cannibals, and worse as he tries clear his name through valor in the depths of the fallen Nanten Kingdom.

Jay Swanson takes his garage monologues to the couch, where anything goes. Friends drop by to ruin the monologue element and discuss everything from what goes on behind the scenes to current events and more.
