It's the 27th century and humanity has long since taken to the stars. Though we have taken to the stars we have yet to discover intelligent life. Thus in the void of the unknown differing schools of thought have arisen. One that is heavily xenophobic and in favor of dominance over the universe and the other that is Xenophiliac and welcomes the idea of other species. This has permeated deep into society including the military. Far on the edges of currently settled space a pair of sister ships are on long range patrol. These ships are the ISV Dauntless and the ISV Revival, a pair of identical heavy cruisers outfitted with the latest technology and weaponry. While on patrol they come across a mysterious signal and decide to follow it. When they get to the source they find far more than they bargained for.

Its been two thousand years since humanity lost their home planet and a thousand since they first made landfall on the world they now call home. The trip was long and fraught with danger but they managed to survive in no small part to the new gods they found along the way. The Celestial Court granted life to various forms of variant human species, sculpted to perfection as the next evolution for mankind. After a thousand years however humanity finds itself on the edge of collapse, as technology from the old world breaks down more and more the people of the new world are regressing into a more feudal state of living. As technology declines and degrades, magic and the supernatural has become the norm. Conflicts are on the rise between the different factions of the Celestial Empire all while the gods themselves watch from above silently. In one small corner of the Empire rests the Black Coast, home to the mysterious and ostracized race known as the Twins. It is in this quiet place that a set of triplets will determine the fate of not just the Empire, but the world as a whole for decades to come. --- This is a book I've been working on for a few years when I have the time.
