The Gate Guardians

Terr at Sol, Place of Peace, Earth, is overcrowded and there is no room for the Hordes of Humanity from the originating ancestral System. The Sun of Lantius is expanding and billions of souls will be extinguished unless complete control of the Gates can be discovered. The Guardians attempt to manage the exodus, but Gates are simply the last vestige of the Big Bang, infinitely long conduits of concentrated dark energy and their control, by even the genetically gifted Ayat, is tenuous at best.
The Tanan armies seek to manipulate the Gates for their own people and within the Lantian System they dominate with their engibred Susayati warriors. Their leader, the Urgan is becoming frantic, there is less time than anyone thought.
The Ayat of Earth have lived amongst humanity, hidden, guiding, controlling and manipulating. Complacency has become a disease and the Redyn Council, the rulers of the Ayat Nation, lack clear Purpose.
Into the mix Jack is born, his mother and father were key members of the Lantian Redyn, but 'Came Through' to Earth. Jack, despite his parents' machinations, fails the millennia old Tests and the family have only two options, lose Jack or lose themselves to the Nation. Before they can decide his mother is murdered. His father, proud and defiant, chooses isolation and he and Jack live their lives away from the watchful eye of the overbearing Madris, leader of the Redyn, Jack's own maternal Grandfather.
On the day he has been promised all the answers to his disguised uniqueness, the Tanan's of Earth, the Yit Varti, strike and kill Jack's father.
Suddenly he is catapulted into a world previously unknown to him, a fight across the Universe, between various subsets of Humanity, for control of the Old World, the New World and the Worlds beyond; control that can only be assured through the mastery of the Gates.
But what is Jack, his neurons do not work as they should, will he create Gates or be the source of destruction.
