All was at rest.Until the Cascade began to fall from the sky.Kierkad and his brother Sentinels are ready to die for the Noble Call of protecting humanity. They gave up everything, their home world, their identity, and all memory of the past for the privilege.

Nothing is what it seems. The Noble Call has become a trap.
