Limping along in their dilapidated vessel, the humans travel from planet to planet seeking fuel, supplies, and shelter. Despite Alliance assurances the refugees would receive assistance, that help has been lacking. Sitting on the edge of Alliance territory, the very end of the known universe, Theran is their last hope…and Rosellia will do anything to save her family.

Tomis ven Yorux has big dreams. The son of a Theranni politician, he yearns to forge his own path in the Assembly.

A system can only be changed by someone on the inside, and Tomis can’t afford to do anything that goes against the heavy expectations placed on him.
