It has been a year since the events in PRAXIS, when Lieutenant Remi Orthesian reclaimed his homeland of Orthese and found a new home for the survivors of the Happy Wanderer. Now his peace is taken from him as he is forced to go in search of the survivors of the Wounded Sons clan. He gathers together a new group of men and the raw recruits of the brotherhood and, along with Mercurse and the mysterious Montpelier, sets out to bring the lost Wounded Sons home. While on the edge of known space, Mordeen has escaped to a medieval planet and, in her quest to raise the Supremacy to new heights, she summons the greatest demons to her side to begin her reclamation of the universe and the destruction of those who stand in her way
