Description
It is the twenty-third century and Elijah Harms is anything but ordinary. He, the one who has a special connection to light, came to New Haven City after his parents died in a conflict between naturally-born humans and the modified. War, hardship, and being the father figure to his younger siblings has made Elijah feel older than most twenty-year-olds. Despite his challenges, Elijah's spirits are buoyed by his friendships with Honoria Eden and Endre Gran.
One day as the three friends gather in the center of the city to hear who has been chosen to join the Sanctum, become a paladin, and push for peace with The Dominion, everything changes in moments. After a sudden attack by unknown forces robs the city of its baron, its peace, and many of its citizens, Elijah soon realizes that the world he once knew no longer exists. After he separates from his injured friends to check on his family, Elijah is pursued by evil mercenaries. He is their target, but why? When he is unexpectedly saved by the paladin of the Sanctum's infantry unit, Elijah and his friends are led down a path none ever could have imagined.
In this futuristic tale, a young man, his friends, and a paladin must band together to combat a group of malicious mercenaries intent on destroying their world.
