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

	Nathaniel makes his way to the terminal attached to what he can only assume is the Warpspace core, “Alright Daedalus, how do I get this thing started?”


	The red light shines down from the ceiling, materializing a hologram of Daedalus in the core alongside Nathaniel.


	Nathaniel types the word and glances at Daedalus, expecting more, “That’s it.”


	Yes. The core should be able to reset itself now that you have entered the command key. Unfortunately, entering the command key also initiates a lockdown of the core room.


	Nathaniel sits down beside the core, contemplating the last few moments of his life, “So, wait, does this mean any time this has ever happened someone had to die to fix the core?”


	No. This has never happened. Mind if I sit? Daedalus points to the spot on the floor beside Nathaniel. 


	“You can sit?” Nathaniel smirks at Daedalus.


	It’s more like maintaining the illusion of sitting. But yes.
