The galaxy is threatened by a self replicating ai known as dusk which is steadily coming closer to galaxy wide domination and the enslavement of all sentient life. The only thing standing in its way is the ever dwindling alliance of free planets, which desperately needs the support of the highly advanced genetically modified meta humans, who having been pushed to the brink of extinction by previous wars are now neutral. A young meta human prince named Arthur is kidnapped by dusk and has to align himself with a con man,a knight and what's left of humanity in order to find his family and end the war.
