As the Greshian Empire broadens its reach, pockets of rebel forces form to combat their tyrannical rule. Death before dishonor becomes the last gasp of dying civilizations. When two sides of the war converge, surviving becomes common ground for unlikely allies. As the tides turn and they become refugees on the run, the ragtag crew of the Replicade must lean on each other - no simple task after years of war and hate.

Pila was once a great society in the outer reaches of the Alorian Galaxy. But as the war drew near, their security waned. Unlikely events preserved the lives of the refugees of Pila after its destruction, but saving their lives resulted in the loss of their freedom. As those against Greshian rule form a resistance movement on the last inhabitable station in the Pilatian sector, the daughter of the Emperor has other plans that will shape the future of the galaxy.

After escaping from the clutches of a sinister organization known as CERCO, the crew of the Replicade mourn the loss of a friend. But their experiences affect them differently and the crew soon discovers a frightening health concern for Anki after she experiences a seizure which places her in a comatose state. Fighting to stay out of sight from the Greshian Empire, they seek assistance on a world harboring resentment for Greshians, no matter their affiliation with the Empire.

The illusion of peace shrouds a hidden darkness. Just as the crew of the Replicade are getting settled on a seemingly tranquil world, they encounter a young girl with special abilities - and she’s being hunted by a secret, powerful organization that will stop at nothing to have her. When Anki and Brendle intervene to help the girl, they are caught in the organization’s crosshairs. The crew must make a decision: give into the looming threat of the organization or die fighting to protect her.

After four months in hiding, Brendle Quin can't delay his mission any longer. His ship, the Replicade, is held together with failing patches, and he needs to make repairs in a port. Unfortunately, the nearest world with proper facilities is situated deep in Greshian-owned enemy territory.

Sergeant Anki Paro, a Luthian Marine, has been anxiously awaiting the call to deploy. As her path towards war draws near, Anki begins to notice a shift in balance as her society prepares itself for imminent destruction. Questions of misplaced loyalties lead her to wonder if the world she is trying to save has any real intentions of surviving. As Brendle and Anki's worlds collide, they find themselves in an unlikely alliance to try to stop the full might of the Greshian Empire before there's nothing left to fight for.

This is a collection of poems about hope, love, despair, and joy. And the occasional dragon.
