On the mechanical planet of Ma’a, Evl and his widowed mother become unexpected guardians of the Lightning Seed—a legendary artifact shrouded in mystery. Their daily struggle for survival transforms into a desperate race against the Otuun empire’s elite. As Evl taps into the Seed’s extraordinary powers, he inadvertently triggers a chain of events that will reshape Ma’a and revive long-forgotten worlds and knowledge.

​

Amidst colossal generators, vast battery fields, and accelefields that produce harvests in mere days, Evl’s yearning for a better life morphs into a battle for existence. The cryptic gift of the Lightning Seed from Talain, a local warlord, comes with a simple yet daunting instruction: keep it and stay alive.

​

With an increasing number of powerful adversaries in close pursuit, can Evl’s peculiar tribal gifts keep him a step ahead long enough to discover what the Lightning Seed can do? Will Ma’a, and perhaps the entire universe, survive if he does?
