Expecting their first child, Zak and Aimee flee Earth, fearing their baby's genetic anomalies will be discovered. They return to the safety of the Guardianship Horus, where this unique toddler will be welcomed unconditionally. But they learn that the Horus is not the refuge they were looking for. The colossal ship has been damaged and is forced to land.

Anthum—a planet of lush landscapes, grand temples, and sparkling shorelines—was once abandoned by the citizens of the Horus due to an epidemic. Now, with the virus eliminated, they can return to the pristine land they once called home. But Anthum is not the paradise they remember. Beneath its beautiful facade lies hidden secrets powerful enough to turn its settlers into nomads once again. 

Amidst this chaos, the young warrior Gordeelum crash lands in a secluded valley, only to be captured by its inhabitants. Facing a grim fate, his survival hinges on the possibility of transforming foes into allies.

Fleeing Earth to protect their child, Zak and Aimee instead find themselves in a land filled with deception. 

Will they survive this fourth world?
