Eden Everlasting

The planet Sonrind in the Andromeda Galaxy was colonized by humans thousands of years ago, but contact was lost soon after. Now, Earth is trying to regain contact with their old colonies on the dwarf planet where the people have developed their own culture apart from Earth.

Keall is 15 years old and dying from Moon Sickness, a lack of oxygen. She has already lived longer than expected and expects to die any minute, but when a newly ordained priestess named Des arrives with hope for a cure in Eden, Keall may have found hope again.

Edgar arrives as part of a research team from Earth to reconnect with their lost colony and runs into Keall and Des. He begins to get personally involved in Keall's well being and consequently is intrigued by her odd faith. Believing what he does, he see the peoples' religion as silly and not practical. Eventually after he experiences an act of faith that could possibly make him believe.
