'''Albion''' is the British Empire's domain in the [[High Wilderness]].__forcetoc__ 

==An Empire Renewed==
The hub of Albion is [[New London]] - good old Fallen London - which has now been transported into space, brick by brick. Empress [[Victoria]] rules here from her Throne of Hours, having gained control over time itself. The region is illuminated by the glorious and ''very dangerous'' [[Clockwork Sun]], the new King of Hours, and the light that keeps the watches ticking. The new trade industry is '''hours''', a material form of time that's often gifted to the privileged and pleased, which can be used to significantly prolong one's life. Those who fall out of favor are thrown into the '''Midnight Cells''', where minutes can last days. All space that lies beyond Albion is known as the [[Reach]]. Albion and the Reach are linked by a Transit Relay, located in the [[Brabazon Workworld]].

== History ==
{{major spoiler small}}
During the turn of the 1900s, [[London]] allied with [[the Khanate]] to breach the [[Avid Horizon]] and escape the Neath and [[the Bazaar]]'s influence once and for all. They succeeded. Once the Horizon was crossed, London rebuilt itself in the sky, brick by brick, in the space once ruled by the sun of Albion, while the Khanate settled in [[Eleutheria]] to form the [[Eagle's Empyrean]]. The sun of Albion was the '''King of Hours'''. Officially, Queen Victoria conspired with the [[Revolutionaries]] to use an Unclear Bomb to kill it. With the death of a star, the Empress erected the [[Clockwork Sun]], a renewed artificial star that would make her will the world's law (never mind the glassing and unraveling time). With her power solidified, London entered a new age of imperialistic fervor and glory, determined to preserve her grip on the skies for all eternity.

However, the absolutely unauthorised and unofficial version of the story is that the King of Hours was in fact murdered not by London, but much longer ago by the Sapphir'd King, the sun of [[The Blue Kingdom]]. The Unseen Queen who currently lives in Underlondon is his daughter, formerly Albion's moon.
