Peace is finally in sight for the Egyptian people as the separatist war finally begins to draw to a close. Now, as Major Taymen Orelle and his crew prepare for their next mission a surprise attack on the empire by an unknown enemy leaves the Egyptian Defence Force in shambles.
Alone with no support and limited supplies Taymen must find a way to wage a one ship war against a vast enemy to retake their home and free their people. As they learn the truth of their forgotten heritage and their enemy's true motives Taymen's mission suddenly becomes more complicated and he soon finds himself overwhelmed.
With their people at the mercy of a relentless enemy and the fate of two galaxies resting on his shoulders, Taymen and his crew must rely on help from the few free members of the Defence Force, a group of primitive humans from a backwater planet and the separatists he spent his military career at war with to stop an enemy that defeated their ancestors, and unlock a secret that could bring about the destruction of the entire universe.
