<p>The Magnian Empire, an intergalactic superpower ruled by the God Emperor Magnus. Psionic strength and genetic engineering rule supreme, with aristocracy decided by merit and Kinetic ability. Its tensions run high with the Union of Stars, a galactic federation that favors artificial intelligence and the union between flesh and chrome supremacy. Ever since the Platinum Star War, their differences have been irreconcilable, but there is no greater unionizing force than an unfathomable eldritch enemy. One that was thought to have been extinguished, but the lingering fear of their presence lurking in the darkness between dead stars is all that prevents all out war.</p> <p>Still, the instinctual terror all humans have of this unseen but ever-present enemy had waned over the past few centuries. That is until two sins committed by a Duchy within the Empire are laid bare, and that fear is revitalized in a decades long war. A purge of the family who had communed with this unfathomable force, and committed atrocities neither the Empire nor the Union could imagine even in the darkest recesses of their minds.</p> <p>All members of this accursed family had been exterminated. Each personally slain by the Empire's force of mythic psionics, the Crows. At least, that's what they had thought.</p> <p>Elias Vicha, tormented by nightmares of events he was too young to fully comprehend, knows that the Crows are coming. He just doesn't know why.</p> <p>Not until they arrive on his mother's doorstep.</p>
