The battlefront has spread from the Inner Stars to Orion and the Transcend. While civil war rages within the Alliance's strongest member, Orion presses its advantage, striking smaller nations around the Inner Stars. It'll be up to Tangel and the ISF to turn the tide. To do that, they'll need to rely on old alliances in order to strike at their enemy's heart. If they can end the threat Airtha presents, the focus can shift to Orion and her allies.Tangel is up to the task, but she knows not everyone will survive the mission against Airtha. When she learns the cost of taking Orion, it just might prove to be more than she can bear.
