The year is 3284, six standard years since the Swarm broke through from their own reality and invaded the Sovereign Stars.
Their purpose?
To eradicate all human life from the galaxy. To them, the very concept of independent thought is an anathema.
Now, with the conflict raging on, neither side holds a decisive advantage. The Swarm’s presence is entrenched, their outposts firmly secured across the sovereign systems.
Technological advancements by the United Sovereign Fleets are met with equal measures of innovation by the alien invaders, escalating the conflict into a deadly race for supremacy on all fronts.
Amidst the chaos of total war, political upheaval grips the Sovereign systems, breeding dissent and treachery at every turn. Prince Elio, once a figure of hope, languishes in prison, a captive of the state. Commodore Morian, captain of the Avenger, leading a small expeditionary force, is branded a renegade, hunted across the stars. Prince Tarak of the Odin system teeters on the brink of committing unspeakable acts in his relentless pursuit of power and the eradication of the extraterrestrial threat.
In a stunning turn of events, Scientist Eugma Zettel and Marshal Secerna Hyde defect, joining forces with a clandestine entity known only as, The One.
