From publisher blurb:
Beyond the edge of mapped stars, where the light of suns dwindles into perpetual dusk, lies a system forgotten by time and forsaken by reason. Karnath’s Veil, cloaked in cosmic debris and spectral storms, has long been a place where whispers of fortune die in silence. Among scavengers, it is a graveyard of failed empires. But for those who hear the echoes of its mysteries, it is a crucible of legend, where fate forges destiny from ruin. Rumors swirl like the nebulae that shroud the Veil—stories of a crystalline relic known as the Eye of Ankaris, believed to wield the power to reshape reality itself. Thought lost to time, the Eye’s rediscovery has sparked a perilous hunt across the Veil’s desolate expanse. Warriors, spies, zealots, and rogues race toward this spectral prize, driven by ambition, vengeance, or desperate hope. They carry with them the weight of old grudges and unspoken truths, oblivious to the ancient forces stirring in the cold void. Your journey begins aboard a weather-beaten starship as it drifts toward Karnath’s heart. The hum of ion thrusters vibrates through the hull, mingling with the spectral wail of distant comets. Fractured sensor readings flicker across the dim console—a fragmented mosaic of forgotten wrecks and celestial debris. You have crossed the threshold of the known into the abyss of the forbidden, propelled by purpose or desperation. Yet shadows deepen the closer you draw to truth. The factions vying for control of this treasure harbor their own secrets, their motives as twisted as the rift-torn skies. The Black Harbingers, mercenaries of legend, seek to wield the Eye as a weapon of subjugation. Opposing them, the enigmatic Covenant of Aetherfall sees it as a key to cosmic enlightenment, a tool to transcend mortality itself. Caught between these clashing forces, your choices will determine the fate of the Veil—and perhaps the galaxy beyond. Heed this warning: not all treasures are meant to be found. The Eye of Ankaris is more than relic or myth. It sees you as you see it, unraveling your innermost desires and fears. As you draw nearer to the heart of this celestial labyrinth, ask yourself not what you seek to gain, but what you are willing to sacrifice.
