Description: **A ruthless usurper. A rebellion’s spark. One chance to reclaim the stars.**
Evan and Anya refuse to back down as Rostov’s regime tightens its chokehold, purging dissidents across the Commonwealth. But as evidence of Rostov’s atrocities spreads, the core worlds rally to disrupt the enemy’s grip.

Leading the rebellion from the shadows, Evan and Anya strike Syndicate outposts with daring raids to arm the oppressed. But with a fight on multiple fronts, Roman’s inside connections could make all the difference—if he can be trusted.

As every victory draws Rostov’s wrath closer, Evan and Anya are on the verge of finally getting answers about the Korani. However, evidence mounts that the fate of the alien civilization may be inextricably tied to the Commonwealth’s own future.

With cities burning, can Evan and Anya topple the regime’s power in time to prepare for the mounting galactic threat?
