EXILED FROM HEAVEN. FORCED INTO HELL.
For centuries, the Aobians of the Great Tree have shared the continent of Q'ara with humanity. A select few known as Sleepers are empowered by Luminosity, the Tree's greatest blessing.
Drift, a young and cynical Aobian, has been exiled from his homeland – forever. Now, with no understanding of this condemnation, Drift must traverse the land of humans below, and find his purpose in an ever-changing world. Tarri, his betrothed, seeks to do the same, whilst also bringing him home.
Elsewhere on Q'ara, an unknown organisation seeks to weaponise Luminosity for their own nefarious purposes. Drift himself is a part of this puzzle, and it quickly becomes apparent that the struggle for true power in Q'ara is emerging for reasons greater than anyone is prepared to grasp.
