Finding herself now an adult and completely without skill, Myx yearns for an adventure that will help her determine a better future than as a boring store clerk. So when much-anticipated War Declaration between the Tarasi and the Hathak is announced, she decides to enlist.
However, tragedy strikes her first day in the military. The Hathak storm the training center, taking Myx and her companions as prisoners of war. Forced into slavery at a Labor Camp, they must endure every variety of abuse as the Hathak perform inhumane experiments on their Tarasi captives.
Through every soul-crushing moment of darkness, Myx manages to find the strength to bear her Handler’s brutality. She draws her determination from the love of her fellow prisoners during their weeks of torture. Despite her apathetic nature, she manages to gain some new abilities.
And yet, there is something more sinister taking place. No one around Myx seems to be who they say they are. Her tribulations increase further as she must seek out the truth behind everyone’s original motives for wanting to be involved in her ordinary existence.
