==Summary==
Maxwell was the former ruler of The Constant before being freed/overthrown by Wilson. With his newfound freedom he roamed The Constant, most of his former powers missing. All he had left was the book that started it all, the one that brought him to this wretched realm, the Codex Umbra.
As he wandered the world, he encountered Wilson again, even though he was supposed to be on the throne. After a brief struggle, the two decided to join forces, bringing forth survivors to one single world. Now they brave the hostile new world, together.
