'"Contentment through unity. Protection through peace."

'Welcome to Gemarine: utopian home to a select group of Aranthers, Sytheracts and Humans.

'You can live a pleasant life with a meaningful job, integrate yourself within a non-judgemental community, participate in no-strings-attached copulation events and nurture your passion.

'But is it all just a fickle facade of frivolity? Is something sinister lurking beneath the leadership of Madame Bleu and her Inner Circle?

'After emerging from the wreckage of a crashed ship, a Human named Xan befriends a rare creature in the Wilds of Gemarine, forging a bond that sets them on a course across the far-reaching corners of the galaxy.

'Lilianna is a Sytheract who doesn't always fit in with the Gemarine way of life. Working in conservation with Xan, she is a quiet achiever, with a heart of gold and eyes to match.

'Juniper is a promiscuous Gemarinian with a quick wit and a quicker temper. After losing her arm in a brutal war, she commands a squad with a steely heart and a fierce determination.

'After Juniper accepts a rescue mission in a dangerous part of the galaxy, she finds herself face to face with an ancient enemy.

'Will Xan and his ragtag crew be able to save her? Or will they uncover a plot that unites the fate of all their former homeworlds?

'"Nothing is flawless in a galaxy built from chaos."'

'"Contentment through unity. Protection through war."

'Welcome to the Multiverse: where threads of time writhe like tentacles in the quantum sea of space.

'After venturing beyond forsaken worlds and uniting the three celestial crystals, the crew on the Attenborough must travel through time to reverse the damage inflicted upon the galaxy by the tyrannous Madame Bleu.

'Four separate missions in time. Three new worlds to explore. Two opposing sides of a revolution and one final chance to repair the galaxy.

'Through streets where robots roam. In a laboratory where innocent blood is shed. Over dystopian deserts where betrayal lingers. In the bitter cold of a brutal civil war. What awaits them when they return to Gemarine and finally face their greatest foe?

'Can they weave the threads of time together to prevent their extinction? Or will they be struck by the hands of fate?'
