The world ruler is dead, technology foundational to their society has been destroyed, and Safara is on the brink of collapse. Half-human, half-alien Eros is the rightful heir to the world throne, but before he can return to the capital, heтАЩs abducted by a rebel group of humans who call themselves The RemnantтАФand they wonтАЩt release him until he swears to help them overthrow the very government heтАЩs inheriting.
With Eros missing, ex-queen Kora is determined to stave off mad grabs for the throne. But as royalty from across the territories flock to the capital, and a new charismatic candidate takes the spotlight, Kora sets off into the desert with a skilled prince-turned-bounty hunter to find Eros before itтАЩs too late for both the future king and his kingdom.
Finding Eros is only half the problem, though; if they can return to the capital, heтАЩll need to be ready to prove heтАЩs worthy of the throne to the high council, to the Sepharon and human people, and, most importantly, to himself.
