In a galaxy millions of light-years away from Earth, humans, droids and other lifeforms co-exist. After the Great War, which lasted for over 4,500 years, 3 star systems agreed on a treaty, forming the Crescentian Republic and ending the war. The three leaders of the respective star systems decided that the centre of political power would be located on the planet of Dieusia. The population centre of Dieusia, Worf City, became the Federal District and housed the Senate Building and the different government districts.
One thousand five hundred years later, the Crescentian Republic controlled several of the galaxy's trade routes and the respective 3 star systems prospered. Peace was established within the Republic and the newly-elected Supreme Chancellor Claudine Ghen, a human, introduced the Expansion Plan, which aimed to assimilate other star systems into the Crescentian Republic. This resulted in a massive uproar in the different star systems that were outside of the Republic's control. Leaders of those systems refused to give up their power, leaving Chancellor Ghen with no other choice but to use force.
The first system that the Republic targeted was the Herranium System, governed by Duke Henry Revern IV. Hundreds of battlecruisers, carrying countless small fighters and troop transporters, made their way to Herranium. The first planet, Veres, was subdued quickly. From there, the Republic forces established a base, and within three years, the entire Herranium System was colonised by the Republic and Duke Henry IV was brought to Dieusia and was executed in front of a huge crowd.
Now, it seems that the peace within the Republic may be compromised and a potential war may break out in the near future. The colonisation of Herranium only made the Chancellor bolder. Even some of the senators in the Crescentian Senate have secret plans. The darkness within will soon reveal itself, and no one knows when.
He reaches into his collar with two fingers and tugs it away from his sweaty neck. I pry into his presence until I can't any longer. He understood every damn word I just said to him, so his terrified eyes are piercing into mine.
"What on Earth are you doing Adira?" he struggles to ask me.
The fight against this gift is similar to the fight against mind control, except you have to battle your own urge for relief as well. After all this time I've spent seducing him, he should know exactly what I am now.

2102 is quiet the leap in time. Intergalactic travel, aliens, and even powers are what the world becomes known for. There is still a normal, functioning society to account for though. One ruled by an unfair leader that most of the country detests. When Adira Stefano finally gets her long awaited gift, she fears being forced into hiding. However, when she discovers someone that has faith in her, she realizes that true change is her new daunting temptation.
