Thirty years after the events in the Solar system, the Empire had entered a time of expansion and advancement. Six hundred light years from Earth, humanity starts again. But, their safety and peace are threatened when a hostile force is detected in one of the systems close to the Empire's border.
The Empire needs to prepare for war, and perhaps even strike first in order to protect its people that now include Nel—aliens from the colony world of Nuva.
Other races and other events interfere with the plans, and Emperor Tomas Klein is forced to make decisions that could affect millions.
Adrian Farkas—now leading one of the six Clans of the Empire—prepares his forces for war. New technologies are put to the test. New discoveries and realizations come to the surface as the Empire goes to war.
