It's been four months since Rhys Falkrow's life was turned upside down by the events in the capital city of Brechin. At 19, he is now Overseer of the seafaring vessel
Themis and leader of an ever-growing crew of misfit fighters, diplomats, engineers, and sailors bent on bringing chaos to the Pantarak Empire. Despite his achievements and uncanny abilities, however, Rhys still finds himself adrift and without purpose. The fiery determination that burned within him directly after his sister's death is now a smoldering flame.
Upon coming across a relic, an artificial intelligence unit manufactured over 200 years ago, surprising connections materialize, and his life takes yet another curious turn. As the events of the past become more relevant by the day, Rhys and his crew make a startling discovery that alters their understanding of the world as they know it.
Soon, Rhys finds himself the target of a new enemy, one that has remained silent, hidden for thousands of years. With rebellions against the Pantarak Empire burning around him and war imminent, he takes a calculated risk that will change Earth's destiny-and his-forever.
