Five years have passed since the battle of Earth, and the Lyarran Empire has begun to grow dark with a looming shadow. Once revered as a Goddess, Iana now has begun to feel the anger of others for the perceived loss of Aen, as an unseen force begins its play to take her place as head of the great Empire. To save herself, she must trust in the one being that she has tried hard to hide from all others. Aen is not what he once was, and at the same time is much more. Gone is his memory of his old life, but now he is in full control of all his potential power. He is the weapon his creators envisioned with little hesitation in proving it and is more than happy to be left alone before his new life is disrupted. Now he is forced to help Iana to not only save her, but finds himself involved in a plan so radical it will shake the entire galaxy to its core.
