Inside a decrepit space station, destiny awaits.
Prince Arin'thal has ambition checked only by the limited power of his tiny city-state. At the Conclave of Nations, he endeavors to shift the balance of geopolitical influence.
Yet disaster waits beneath the shadows of the great tower and its mysterious roots.
If Arin'thal is to survive, he must prove his wits, courage, and moral grit are up to the task. An ancient entity will test him. And he might break before he uncovers the future of the world.
There's more than one way to shatter a world.
