Far in the future, Earth is nothing but a distant memory. Humanity found a new home in Eittera-a massive planet spanning eight vast continents.

The planet is plunged into a ruthless, global war for survival and supremacy. At the dark heart of this conflict stands the Cartella Company, a colossal mega-corporation that has seized monopoly over 80% of Eittera's Mana. In a world built on cold steel, dystopian smoke, and blood-soaked resources, Cartella rules from the shadows with an iron fist. As nations clash and the corporate war machine grinds everything to dust, one question remains: Who will control the lifeblood of Eittera, and at what cost? Welcome to Eittera. The war for the future has just begun.

"I've stitched up bodies, broken hearts, and shattered souls. But how do I fix a life when I've become the mess I'm trying to escape?" -Sin One moment, I was a 63-year-old doctor, the next-a 14-year-old freak, trapped in a body that isn't mine. A mistake. An anomaly. A secret worth killing for. The people in power want to own me, dissect me, erase me before anyone else discovers what I am. But I don't give a damn about their wars, their politics, or their rules. I only care about one thing-bringing my husband back before the body farm drains the last flicker of his mind.

Space was ripe for the picking. Now mankind and the enigmatic Voidrians formed the U.S.S.A. The (United Solar Systems Alliance). Before Mankind became the dominant force in the Milky Way, Earth was in shambles. Natural resources were nearly depleted, diseases were rampant and most of Earth's population was in poverty.

The humans who landed on the little planet had nearly lost all hope until they stumbled upon unknown ancient ruins beneath the planet's surface where they discovered untold amounts of bizarre advanced technology. Earth and humanity were saved, and the little planet to thank for their salvation was named Umbra. Alice is a xenoarchaeologist, her passion in life has always been the study of ancient cultures, and now she has the opportunity to study the most ancient one of them all.

To uncover the truth, he must sneak past automated robot guards with bad cockney accents, avoid lasers from swooping DefenceBots, escape explosions from anti-automation activists, outwit two murderous brothers, and flee from a human resources director hell-bent on exacting revenge on her cheating boss.
