Sixteen humans have come together on Damiem, a distant world where a dream was once stolen and atrocities once took place. They have gathered to view the last rising of a manmade nova, the passing testament to an unhallowed war. Soon time will warp and masks will be shed. Soon some will die, and others kill. Soon some will lie, and others go mad. Some will seek love, and others release. Some will learn names, and others courage. Soon some will find justice ... and others judgment. Soon. Now, sixteen humans have gathered. To await the light of the Murdered Star.
