Eons ago, the galaxies of the universe were conjoined. These super galaxies were the result of atoms merging as the universe was born in a tight cluster. As time passed, the galaxies started to tear and drift apart, creating the Voids. In the year 3001, the universe continues to expand, but now, rifts-the by-product of the galaxies' separation-threaten to tear the universe to bits. On Earth, Sean Mathewson Caleb was once a sergeant in the famous Non-Existent Wars. He plans to finally retire and live out his life in peace. Then, an unexpected visit from an alien life form changes the course of his destiny, and a letter from his late father gives him the tools he needs to fight the oncoming darkness-but will it be enough? Meanwhile, in another galaxy, mysterious attacks are making people question what's really out there. Something dark looms in the Voids. They are Dark Matter Entities, ironically nicknamed Sprites. These non-corporeal beings rain death and destruction on anything that is an affront to their existence. With the threat of these beings and with the universe falling apart, it seems a cataclysm is on its way unless a few brave souls can stop it.
