Description
In the distant future, humanity has spread across the stars of the Milky Way galaxy. The planet state alliance enjoyed peace and harmony for countless generations. Then from the darkness they came. Creatures called locust began appearing across colonies. Wiping out anything with a heartbeat using their heavy armored insect like bodies. Humanity struggled to find ways to combat this terror, mechanized suits, heavy arms, did little to damage the creatures before they could destroy whole colonies, the survivors fleeing into space where they thought safety could be found but they were wrong. Fleets of lizard like warriors known as the Yasarrin, attacked in force wiping fleeing vessels from the star filled skies. Humanity turned to the one solution they had relied on to help them colonize the hostile worlds of the alliance, gene modification. With faster reaction times, improved strength and intelligence, modified humans seemed a step in the right direction but it was still not enough. After many years of losing battles, with far too many innocent lives lost, humanity took the great step of engineered evolution, the Valkerie were born. The Valkerie turned the tides in combat, giving humanity the chance to fight for its survival. Heroes arise from the ranks of these all-male super humans, new technologies are born of their brilliant minds. As the war becomes winnable, humans begin to fear what the Valkerie will do once it is over. Thirty-five years since the first Valkerie was born, new and strange orders come down for the public creation of females. What is the real reason for this order? What is the military hiding from the alliance and its own soldiers? More importantly, who is really in control? Subject twenty-seven, called Lilith by High Command, awakens the mystery of this world. Lilith’s attempts to survive and keep her sisters alive in the harsh world she has awaken to, will only bring more questions than answers for her. What does it mean to be human? Is her destiny the life of a soldier or something more? Can she be the face that humanizes the Valkerie and ultimately saves them all or are their darker forces at play here? The most nagging question for the young woman is, who is she really and why does everything hang on her shoulders?
