After the Nightmare

Two Civilizations fight together for survival.

One rift could divide them.

Humans and Caltarans have formed a tentative alliance. If nurtured, it could raise both civilizations back to greatness. But secrets and a series of self-serving agendas threaten to sever the fledging partnership before it can blossom.

On the eve of the battle to free Earth from the oppressive dragon all parties are restless. Liam fears the dragon will ravage Earth's surface beyond salvage. Salis secretly hopes for an impossible outcome. Anten struggles to keep the fraying alliance from shattering.

And Gaia dreams that history is doomed to repeat itself - unless she can find some way to change the future's course.

A Caltaran soul sleeps within the dragon.

The human-Caltaran alliance hopes that awakening this tortured soul will convince him to flip sides. But he has spent decades decimating both civilizations. No one knows how much the sleeping soldier will remember or how he will cope with the truth once it's revealed.

Assuming a soul that has slept for 10,000 years can even be coaxed awake.
