Systems in Chaos: Dissention The year is 2543 and humanity has expanded their civilization to several solar systems. And for many centuries humanity has lived in peace - until the fracture. Humanity fractured into three powerful factions. The Zeuti Guardians, the United Alliance and the Hadi Empire. They were all once part of the United Alliance, but as the unique, evolutionary, powers of a new breed of warrior, the "Zeuti", the fracture came. The Zeuti Guardians were the second faction to arise, breaking away from the authority of the UA, the Zeuti became a peacekeeping organisation and had sole authority over all biofeed capable humans. Biofeed, the essence of the Zeuti warrior. The UA and the Guardians have worked as a union beside one another to keep the peace within the borders of Human Civilization, but peace was not enough for a segmented group of Zeuti. These power hungry fighters decided it was time for a change. Breaking an entire solar system away from the grasp of the United Alliance, the Hadi Empire was born. These dark biofeed soldiers became secluded for many centuries, but in the year 2543 they returned with the full might of their military. Their invasion has began and the devastation is unparalleled. The United Alliance is on their own as the Zeuti Guardians refuse to help. However, a handful of Zeuti Guardians have gone rogue and decided to aid the last surviving planet in the Alpha Centauri System, they are led by Teran Artosis. They will do all they can to help. But nothing is as simple as that, and the situation back home is stirred up by the Teran's old mentor, Galvin El'Finn. Vladimir Struganov is the last great Commander the United Alliance has at its disposal on the planet of Kalorin and he plans on bringing Hell to the Hadi Empire for invading his planet.

It whispers promises of greatness in the heads of the men and women that wield it. Now, it has spoken to the mind of a king.

Everything he thought he knew about the King, his people, and his world is coming to an end. At a time when there should be peace, he's once again called to war. Torn between shocking changes at home, his family, loyalty to his men and his King, Stefan wishes only to enjoy life away from the battlefield. But with the new campaign comes a rabid, unforgiving enemy and a potential cataclysm. Follow him as he fights to save his family, his people, his honor, and his birthright from the grips of the shade. Can he save them all? If not, which will he choose, which will he lose?
