Since pasttimes, a violent and often clandestine struggle reemerges throughout the Universe. A bitter conflict, it rages between the rational forces of reason, light, and life and the fanatics of faith, darkness, and death. On the planet Nartoul, this dispute will soon erupt into a brutal war. The destiny of Katrin, a warrior princess, is foretold in ancient scrolls of the Eternals. She will be the heroine uniting the forces of reason, against the seductive dogma of faith, threatening to sweep like a malignant plague across the Three Lands. Katrin is slain. On Earth, Catherine a religious Earth woman endures a job interview from hell. Endowed with a shapely figure and possessed of a rational mind repressed by religious dogma, she spends her life running from sexual harassment and ignoring reality. That night, she dreams of a place where God commands men and women to respect others equally, and value each other for their ability, not their gender or the shape of their body. "As if that would ever happen." Catherine, unknowingly selected to replace Katrin, awakens abruptly on Nartoul. She holds a battlesword, and stands amidst near naked alien warriors engaged in a fierce clash with large, brutish thugs. She fights for her life in the lesser gravity. "Why do large brutes want to kill me, and godless warriors wear sinful attire?"
