The year is 2357, and for an orphan girl named Ayana, it's not an easy life. Mankind has, after years of war and strife, spread to the far reaches of the universe. Humans and aliens live in relative harmony. As always, many choose to explore more, to go farther than others. But some things that should have been left undiscovered have begun to surface. Living in the slum sectors on the planet wide city of Caluriea, work is not hard to find for Ayana if she looks hard enough. But when she accidentally unearths an ancient evil that threatens everyone's existence, it is up to her and a motley band of outcasts to save the universe. -------- All rights reserved.
