Your ordinary life takes an extraordinary turn one night when, on your way home, you're abruptly taken by unknown forces. You're just a regular person, nothing special, until this moment. Your last memories before losing consciousness are a blur of flashing lights and the murmurs of voices speaking in an unfamiliar tongue.
When you come to, you're in a place that feels both strange and oddly familiar, surrounded by the hum of machinery.
Standing in front of you is the first alien you have ever encountered: Felynna Quorialis. Felynna has a humanoid shape, but her features are a curious mix of human and feline, like some exotic blend of leopard and cheetah, with an added layer of something you can’t place, but a mystery to be sure.
Fel, as she allows you to call her, quickly reassures you of your safety. She explains that her people, the Sekarri, come from a distant star system. Your abduction, it turns out, was a mere coincidence.
The Sekarri are on a mission of survival, fighting against a relentless drone fleet that's indiscriminately attacking and devouring planets, their next target is Gianchara Prime, a planet inhabited by humanoid spiders.
You meet Rhyzhark, the no-nonsense commander of the Sekarri ship, the Starborne Vindicator. He views humans as insignificant and intends to return all the abductees, believing you have no role in their war. However, your interactions with Fel evolve into a mutual respect, and she begins to see your potential, advocating for your place among them.
The stakes rise when it's revealed that a detachment of the drone fleet is headed towards Earth. Rhyzhark, unmoved, prioritizes the defense of the technologically superior spiders, dismissing Earth's chances. He insists their interests lie with defending the much more advanced spiders. He argues that only strong races can stand together against the drone fleet and apologises half-heartedly.
