It is 2845. The great war called the Starsiege has been over for six years.
Fractured and confused after the fall of their progenitor god-tyrant, Prometheus, the Cybrids fled into the darkness of the solar system's outer rim. Throughout the colonies as well as on hallowed Earth, humanity sifted through the charred remains of the Starsiege, gave thanks for its deliverance, and began to rebuild.
Today, children laugh and play in the sunlit plazas of once-scorched cities, the shadow of new fortifications a grim reminder that the Cybrid threat yet remains. But for the moment, humanity is free. A new Emperor sits on the Lion Throne. New ships and new technology reshape the future. Survivors scarred by years of war and loss dare to allow themselves the luxury of hope.
However, humanity's third brush with near-extinction in as many centuries has left it neither complacent nor naive. Far away in the vast reaches of space, hard-eyed men and women patrol the void with steadfast determination. This time they will not wait for the sword to fall. This time humanity will strike first.
Determined not to relent in the pursuit of mankind’s greatest enemy, Emperor Caanon dispatches an armada into the deeps beyond the ghost-orbit of broken Pluto, tasked with the mission of finding the Cybrids and destroying them once and for all. There, in the outermost darkness, three soldiers will come to grips with a humbling secret, and one, under the light of an alien star, will make a terrifying choice on behalf of all humanity.
The Chase is on!
