For one thousand years, the Empire of Eden has dominated the universe. With their endless armies and the deadly warriors known as the Enforcers, no world has ever been able to stand up to the tyrannical invaders... until now. On one of the Outerworlds, Gahldor, the most recent planet to fall under Edenyte rule, a young man named Hiytax starts on a journey to discover the secret history, and hopefully, hidden weakness, of the seemingly invincible Empire. With help from the resilient rebellion known as the Unleashed, and an incredible warrior named Aliorah, Hiytax will travel the universe, exploring new and mysterious worlds in pursuit of a way to defeat the Empire of Eden. All the while, the heroes must evade the terrifying Enforcers and their malevolent leader, Mr. Bedlam, or else their dream of a free universe will be lost forever.

Odyssey of Eden

	“Don’t you think it’s strange we haven’t run into anyone?” Hiytax peeks around the corner, scanning the edges of the bridge for signs of Edenytes waiting to jump out and attack.


	Aliorah suddenly dashes back to where Hiytax is hiding and laughs to herself as he jumps back in fear and stumbles to the ground, “Relax Hiytax, if there were any Edenytes on the bridge we would sure as hell know about it already.” 


	“You didn’t answer my question,” Hiytax scoffs at Aliorah’s outstretched hand.


	Aliorah retracts her arm and turns her back on Hiytax. She slowly walks over to the mission kiosk. It’s heavily damaged. The holograms flicker in and out, attempting to remain whole but failing again and again.


	“We need to try and pull whatever data was on their mission kiosk…” Aliorah looks up to see Hiytax shaking his head at her, while sporting a mocking smirk, “what?”
