Earth has been taken…
On Arrival Day—or as the residents of Earth would refer to it as “Invasion Day”—a dozen bright lights fell through Earth’s atmosphere. Each flaming ball of light crashed into every continent on the planet. Scientists thought they were meteors, but they were wrong.
Fifteen years after the Arkannians came to Earth, Grey Cortese remembers Arrival Day like it was only yesterday. He remembers the War between the Arkannians and the humans, which resulted in half of the planet being torched. He remembers the fear he felt the first time he laid eyes on the Arkannians, but his fear soon grew to anger.
After the Arkannians colonized Earth and took power, the Arkannians claimed they were doing it for the common good, but how much of this is the truth?
Lumen is an Arkannian, daughter of the Arkannian President to be more precise. Lumen feels that colonizing Earth was the best way to keep the residents of destroying their planet, but deep down, Lumen feels that there is something wrong.
Lumen and Grey unite to learn the truth about why the Arkannians really came to Earth, and what they can do to stop another impending war between the Arkannians and the human race.
But will these two be enough to stop their people from destroying each other and Earth in the process?
