"Having escaped AEtheria, Aral and Rex take refuge on Cthonia near the impact site of AEtheria's power plant. At the same time, a team of armed Cthonian scouts sets out to recover their dead from the destruction. Among them, the AEtherian refugee Maire Himmel offers her knowledge of AEtheria to identify remnants of the destroyed power plant. Upon her arrival, though, Rex recognizes Maire as his mother, who was forced to leave him with a foster father sixteen years before"--Provided by publisher.

"Sent by their command to the AEtherians' water-extraction site, a group of ten Cthonian scouts travels for days across the desert. Their mission: to find water for their drought-afflicted civilization. When a reconnaissance team joins them, the Cthonians send scouts up to AEtheria through an access pipe to request water while wells are being dug. But when two of the scouts' bodies plunge to the ground from above, the plan changes--and one enraged Cthonian commander strikes back"--Provided by publisher.

On his sixteenth birthday, the Aetherian Rex Himmel learns that he is special--but no one will tell him why. Ordered by Aetheria's leader to join the militaristic Aetherian Cover Force, Rex soon finds himself involved in an investigation of several mysterious, frozen Cthonian bodies that have been discovered in Aetheria. Just as his team finds a reason for the bodies' appearance, Aetheria's power plant is destroyed in a violent attack from below.

Having survived a firefight with Cthonians below, Rex and Aral flee back up to Aetheria. As soon as they arrive, the two are separated and interrogated. Facing his government's refusal to accept the truth about Cthonia, Rex embarks on a quest to find Aral and rescue her from torture and imprisonment by the ever-more-paranoid Head Ductor, the ruler of Aetheria. Fortunately for them, a member of the militaristic Aetherian Cover Force decides to turn his back on the Head Ductor.

As Rex and Maire reunite, Aetherian operatives swarm Cthonia. The Cthonians, Rex, Maire, and Aral flee, but they are soon embroiled in a firefight with an advance Aetherian guard. When the Cthonians defeat the Aetherians, they force the sky dwellers to remove their respirators. Realizing the air on Cthonia is breathable, the Aetherians join with the Cthonians to tell the remaining Aetherians above the truth about Cthonia. A revolution begins.

"Sixteen years ago, rebellion swept the galaxy known as the Belt of Jewels. Every member of the Leonov royal family was murdered--down to their youngest child, Princess Anya--making way for the Union government to seize power. But Stacia doesn't think much about politics. She spends her days half-wild, rambling her father's vineyard with her friends, Clio and Pol. That all changes when a Union ship appears burning through the sky, bearing the leader of the Union, the Direktor Eminent himself, who declares that Stacia's sleepy village is a den of empire loyalists. Even more shocking, the Direktor claims that Princess Anya Leonova is alive--and Stacia is the lost princess. As their home explodes into chaos, Pol smuggles Stacia to a hidden escape ship, leaving Clio in the hands of the Union. With everything she knows threading away into the stars, Stacia sets her heart on a single mission: She will find and rescue Clio, even with the whole galaxy on her trail"--Provided by publisher.
