Tag had trained all his life for the possibility of new civilizations and new worlds, but he never believed his training would be more than academic. Man might have conquered the stars, but they traveled the vast emptiness between the stars alone. No one knew that alien life had been discovered, the implications too shocking for the government to reveal. Tag alone would explore a civilization his people and government would deny.

This novel was completed for the 2010 NaNoWriMo and has languished in obscurity. Honestly, it has a slow start, but do not be misled into a false sense of security. Familiar security disappears in a foreign world with rigid customs and social orders.

The novel contains scenes of beatings and discussions of castration.

Do your genes, your parents, teachers, or your master determine who you will be in life? Can they set your value in the universe? 650 years ago the known species of the universe came together and signed the Alliance, a document that would help each race find its place in the universe. It granted freedom to some and the scant protection of slavery to others. Into this society a handful of children are born who will change it forever, if they can survive to adulthood. Here is the origin story of two of those children. Hathu is born to a man determined to make the universe bow to him and his species. Since he learned to talk, Hathu has been a disappointment to his father. He doesn't want to become a warrior, and he refuses to assert his dominance. When he accidentally overhears his father plotting against the Ir'Klahn empire, can Hathu stop him? Mik is born with no rights, destined to become a lifelong slave. His mother tries to protect him from this fate by running away and finding a home for them on a trading ship that travels from world to world. They are safe for now, but how long can they hide from the best trackers in the universe? This is the first book in the My Kingdom Come series. Updates every Tuesday. :) My 2021 Nanowrimo so please excuse the unedited condition of the story. Be warned: there is violence, rape, murder, abuse, self harm and suicidal thoughts in this story. I do not post trigger warnings.
