[ BOOK 1 - LEGACY OF THE BROKEN ] SYNOPSIS:
In the depths of a broken galaxy, a Patriarch leads an expedition into the heart of ruined space.
A terrible war ensnares a Sentient AI in its cruel grip.
And the shadow of the Eldritch monsters looms over all.
In a dark galaxy, torn apart by the unspeakable terrors of the Starless Horrors, Patriarch Tov Garesh'Ynt, leader of the Third Expeditionary Fleet, is tasked with exploring the Dead Zone, a quarantined area encompassing two-thirds of the known Galaxy and abandoned after the evil scourge disappeared a century ago.
In their journey deeper into this dangerous space, they encounter the Eldest, a powerful and unstable sentient AI. Constantly exposed to the nightmares of war, her once-brilliant mind has been scarred and traumatized, driven forward only by her undying hatred and desire for revenge against this vile foe.
As Tov and his fleet initiate their first contact with The Eldest, they discover knowledge that could shake the foundations of the wider galaxy. They delve deeper into the mysteries of the Starless Horrors and The Eldest's role in attracting their wrath.
[ BOOK 2 - STARLESS RUIN ] SYNOPSIS:
Following a haunting revelation, a Patriarch delves into the damaged mind of a Sentient AI.
A terrifying Invasion looms on the horizon.
The Allied Defenders of Sol answer the call of war.
The Third Expeditionary Fleet stumbled upon the discovery of a century. The remnants of a dead civilization fight on long after their creators have passed. Powerful beyond imagining, they represent hope against a hated enemy.
After a shaky first contact, a skirmish against a Starless Leviathan, and uncovering the fate of humanity, the leader of the aliens, Patriarch Tov Garesh'Ynt, goes on a dangerous endeavor to aid the traumatized mind of the AI Andora, previously known as the Eldest, a gestalt consciousness of immense power that commands the entirety of the Sol Defense Network.
As the two great leaders remain indisposed, their subordinates pick up the slack, fortifying their defenses and readying themselves for an incursion unlike any they’ve seen before.
[ BOOK 3 - EXODUS ] SYNOPSIS:
Right at the cusp of victory, an eldritch being known as an Executor nearly brings disaster. Only the timely intervention of Overseer Jupiter stops it in its tracks.
The defenders prevail, with the Executor temporarily trapped in an unstable black hole and Jupiter grievously wounded. The damage leaves them with only one choice.
Now, the AI Andora and her Overseers face a terrible reality. Alone and with dwindling resources and time, they initiate the Final Contingency, compelling them to evacuate and abandon the home they've known and fought for a century.
With the help of Patriarch Tov and the Third Fleet, they are urged to bring the dire news to the Galactic Legacy Federation. The journey back is perilous as they must pass through the Dead Zone. Their chances of making it back hinge on rallying with other Expeditionary Fleets they've called for aid, hoping against hope that these allies have not succumbed to the horrors unleashed.
The clock ticks down, and the weight of the galaxy's fate rests on the shoulders of those who survived the horrors of war.
[ BOOK 4 - GARDEN OF THORNS ] SYNOPSIS:
During the aftermath of the Battle of Madraa, the Exodus Armada receives a distress call from a shocking source
The sender, Crown Princess Anaria Moradal of the Dagatar Supremacy and leader of the First Expeditionary Fleet, finds herself in the midst of the Dead Zone Tempest, beset on all sides by enemies. In a last-ditch effort to get her message through to allied forces, she overloads her Starlight Beacon, the device responsible for FTL communication, to pierce the veil.
However, her message puts Andora, now Custodian of the Exodus, Patriarch Tov, and the rest of the armada leadership at a crossroads. The heir of the the mightiest superpower in the Legacy was tasked to reclaim Dagatar Prime, her people’s ancestral home, long abandoned during the Cataclysm.
But alas, the Dagataren homeworld lay deep in the Dead Zone—within a region encompassing the galactic center.
The Old Heartlands.
There, the old superpowers dominated through its vast surplus of exotic resources that kept the wheels of supremacy turning, allowing these titans to spread their influence across the galaxy.
Now, the Heartlands was nothing but a scorched hollow collection of stars, left behind in the wake of the Starless Horrors.
Faced between answering the princess’s call or continuing their journey, the Exodus leadership is forced to make a choice that may change the trajectory of their fates and the galaxy. And while they convened, those recently rescued from Madraa-II must cope with the aftermath of their horrid torment.
