The backstories of Lord Jonas Ares, War Commander Ethan Wolfe, Wraith Hyelin Frost, and Cardinal Nolan Kraft has begun with this Novella.
The Machine War spreads across a thousand worlds, and the Galactic Empire teeters on the brink of collapse. Captain Devon Dark and Wraith Frost are dispatched on a desperate mission: capture the Machine's Code Keeper Device and give the Empire a fighting chance. But the world they must infiltrate is about to be scorched into oblivion. Frost and her Kill Team must survive long enough to ensure the Empire can strike back.

At the edge of the Galactic Rim, War Commanders Jonas Ares and Ethan Wolfe face a new terror -- rogue telepaths known as the Dark Minds. The battle that follows will shape the destiny of the Empire. For Jonas, it is the first step on the path to becoming Lord Commander... though every victory drags him closer to losing his humanity.

Meanwhile, in the shadows of power, Lord Commander Vorian Black uncovers a darker conspiracy. Agents of the Fallen have allied with the ancient Void Walkers to construct a planet killer. Yet the true mastermind pulling the strings is far closer than anyone suspects -- Cardinal Nolan Kraft.

The Machine War has begun, and its outcome will decide the fate of the galaxy.
