The campaign against the destroyer of worlds is going badly. Even the combined force of warriors drawn from thousands of timelines has only resulted in a never-ending war of attrition. The wisdom of the Joon farseers has failed and the Forge of Time is forced to complete the circle and go to Hoomaji and speak to the mad prophet Amanuia. The prophet’s insane ravings tell of the Sword of Life, an unknown master of destiny who can only be found by a child of earth and, as the empire struggles against overwhelming odds, the child of earth must lead the Sword of Life into the heart of the enemy’s territory and stand alone against the destroyer of worlds.
