The warrior race has carved for itself a totalitarian intergalactic empire in the "Three Galaxies", the Trans-Galactic Empire (TGE). Only one individual in the empire knows the dark truth, the Kreeghor Emperor. When its time to pass control of the empire to his successor, the chosen Kreeghor is brought to the Dweller Beneath before he assumes the throne.
