Eons ago, a forbidden love created a monster—now a hunter must track it down. Rogue One meets Inception in a twisty, swoony space saga.

The mind is a terrible thing to wake, especially the one he hunts.

In the First Age, Princess Aurelia Volossik—unseen and unheard—becomes the most unlikely of champions to Brakadir. The godlike warrior is the forced opponent in a monstrous cosmic game for Helios quadrant. He can only hope the abilities he infused her with are enough to turn the tide of the war.

The board is set, the pieces are moving, and the odds are stacked against them.

An age away, Theseus Helstaar hunts visionists—delvers—who violate the sacred territory of the mind. When he abandons a mission to save his fragile sister, he is charged with a secret undertaking for the Imperial House: find the Lost Visionist, the most powerful delver to have ever existed. Worse, bring this delver back—alive—or everything Theseus loves will be destroyed.

The catch? No record of such a delver remains. The only clue leads Theseus to visionists whose minds are so fractured they are locked away in a refuge. Somewhere amid their riddles and resistance lie the keys to the Lost Visionist's identity. But each encounter makes it clearer that his ties to everything he believes may get severed on the shards of their broken minds. 

As timelines and truths collide, Theseus must determine what is real and what isn't. And how much he'll sacrifice to do what's right.
