설명
Biron Farrell finds himself thrust into a world far beyond his youthful understanding, his once sheltered existence shattering alongside the walls of his dormitory. The blast of a radiation bomb propels him into a sprawling cosmic adventure, where survival means unraveling a complex web of political intrigue and betrayal. As the son of a powerful family, his naïveté soon clashes with the harsh reality of galactic power struggles and the machinations of ruthless enemies.
As he journeys through the stars, Biron encounters allies and adversaries alike, each with their own ambitions clouding the very fabric of interstellar governance. The boundaries of loyalty and honor blur as he navigates treacherous back alleys and opulent courtrooms of distant planets. Against this backdrop, Biron's transformation from a sheltered student to a cunning player in the game of empires unfolds, revealing the intricate dynamics of power and the sacrifices it demands.
Caught in a relentless chase, Biron must not only decipher the motives of those around him but also confront his own sense of identity and responsibility. The weight of the lives at stake presses down upon him, raising the question of whether he has the strength to stand against the looming tide of tyranny, or whether he will succumb to the very darkness he seeks to illuminate.
