The Pockmarked Plains suffers under the rule of the First Hegemony of Geos, led by the Immortal Golden Regent. By maintaining a violent meteorite monopoly, any power the Stars would bestow are hers to command. The only ones who dare to stand in her way are the Star Scavenger's Union, the inheritors of the Syndicalist movement that once set half the world aflame. They are determined to not make the same mistakes as their predecessors.Ysciel is nothing but an addict who steals metals from under the Hegemony for drug money, all while barely getting by as a housekeeper in the Regent's Obsidian Castle. Orphaned, destitute, and chronically sick, she has nothing to live for beyond her next hit - until a Unionist sees potential in her, and encourages her to join the fight. For Geos is about to be turned upside-down once more, and Ysciel will not be able to help getting caught up in its wake..
