| AN ALIEN STORY | The universe is dying. Planets are being swallowed whole. Food is scarce, murder is welcoming, and homelessness is a commonality. The only life left to enjoy is in the hunt, a thrill that Droik survivor, Drykkall, finds as his final source of purpose. But when a mission leads him to stumble across a fabled machine that could revive entire worlds, Drykkall's trust and skills are tested as he realizes the allies he had worked for, both past and present, weren't quite so pure or merciless.
