    About this ebook

    The Visaari traveled to Callisto from a faraway star in a distant corner of the Milky Way. The life forms of Earth harnessed Atomic power years ago, grinding their civilization to dust. The ruling Visaari council in the system debated their future stake in a dwindling, though fledgling people. At'rif, a young Visaari filled with love for the humans, sensed the council's commitment waning.

At’rif paced across the command deck of his vessel, crossing his slender arms over his narrow chest while he stared out into the depths of space.
