Buckle up for a mind-bending ride through multiple timelines and dark conspiracies! In a world teeming with vengeful aliens and a tyrant seeking redemption, one man's journey will challenge everything we know about fate and control.
Dasjenya harbors a deep resentment for his society's oppressive "Aoshan" overlords. On a daring scientific expedition into North America's forbidden wastelands, cryptic voices issue chilling warnings. Suddenly, reality shifts and falling meteoric debris obliterates every trace of the world he has ever known.
Flung into the past, Dasjenya must now embrace a new role within an elite and thriving Aoshan culture. Shockingly, he finds himself alongside a younger version of the very tyrant whose future autocratic ways drove him to this desperate mission. Complicating matters, Dasjenya finds himself strangely drawn to this younger version of the woman who will one day shape his destiny.
To safeguard Earth, Dasjenya must bridge the chasm between his past self and the hero fate demands he become.
