A glowing stone with unimaginable power. A trip across the cosmos. The beginning of an epic journey which would ultimately impact the entire human race. Many years ago, Navy airman Durell Dykstra stumbled across a strange stone hidden in the thick brush beside an abandoned military runway in Africa. Not knowing the power the stone possessed, he put it with the other artifacts he had collected throughout his years of service. Long after his retirement from the military, Durell retrieved the stone from its resting place, seemingly directed by an unknown entity. When he saw that the stone was capable of exhibiting tremendous power, he decided to utilize it to power a spacecraft which would mistakenly take him across the universe. There he would meet Atina, his partner in a future which could lead to the destruction of the known universe. Controlling the power he had stumbled across proved to be almost impossible. Atina and Durell will chart a course that will lead them to the final battle for control of the entire universe. But the betrayal by some who were close to them both could tip the scales in favor of their enemies. Will a union between Durell and Atina lead to stability in the universe or destroy all humankind?
