Description
A super-scientific culture known as 'Angels' has left behind relics throughout the galaxy. One such relic is the Station, which enables human spacecraft to travel instantly across vast distances. These Stations are of great interest for their advanced technology, but also pose risks to those who encounter them. The planet Kaspar orbits one of these Stations, home to a unique sentient species that has been allowed to evolve in isolation. However, the sudden appearance of the mysterious 'Citadel' on Kaspar's surface becomes crucial in repelling an imminent threat. But at what cost to its native inhabitants and those living on the orbiting Station? The fate of this isolated world and its human counterparts hangs in the balance as they navigate the implications of the Citadel's emergence.
