Caught between her criminal past and her maternal instincts, Adi Crestone struggles to protect her son from the Blood Queen. Buffeted by inner demons and external foes, she must decide what she is willing to sacrifice for freedom and family—all while navigating treacherous alliances that force her to confront her own past.

Theo Vanguard is an Imperial naval officer entangled in familial duty and political machinations. Trapped between his personal desires and his noble father’s expectations, he is captured by pirates and descends into the seedy underbelly of the city of Solvigant. There he reveals a world of survival and sacrifice.

Dreams of adventure beyond the mundane inspire young Ion Rucinare to run away from home, only to find himself thrust into a perilous quest that could alter the fate of the World System. His yearning for acceptance and belonging is complicated as he grapples with newfound magical abilities and the harsh realities of life on the dying moon Xys.

Caught between the Empire, ruthless gang leaders, and enigmatic gods all vying for power, Adi, Theo, and Ion’s paths converge in a high-stakes search for a powerful artifact that grants divine power.

Will they find their place in a universe teetering on the brink of chaos?
