Months after the fall of the Solver, Uzi, N, V, and even J believed they could handle whatever came next.
They were wrong.
Far beyond Copper-9 lies Sulfur-15, a death-world planet forged by thirty years of endless war. Originally used as the battleground for a private NATO-funded conflict, Sulfur became the testing ground for JCJenson, its partner I.S.A.R. Industries, the patent holder of the combat drones and producer of a special alloy known as Staranium, and their rival, Shinka Dynamics, a corporation specializing in nanodrone technology.
But the war did not end after the Solver killed all humans.
For the combat drones and worker drones activated on Sulfur, the planet became the only home they had ever known. Now they fight not for profit, not for human masters, but for themselves, their people, and survival against an enemy that comes in endless swarms.
And Sulfur's war carries other ghosts.
Cyn sent the remaining disassembly drones there to die, treating the planet as a graveyard for toys she no longer played with. But before many of them perished, they caused one of the darkest moments in Sulfur's history-an event that fueled the hatred many worker and combat drones who still carry toward disassembly drones.
Now, when one of Sulfur's inhabitants accidentally lands on Copper-9, Uzi, N, V, and J are pulled into a war far older, harsher, and more destructive than anything they have faced before.
On Sulfur, even the powers of a god will not save you.
