The Guild Wars seemed to be winding downâŚuntil you left Earth.
Jim Cartwright, commander of Cartwrightâs Cavaliers and Minister of War for the Terran Federation, has been struggling with all the hats he has to wear. Merc commander, minister, and leader of Earthâs Raknar forces for their allies, the Dusman. The strainâs causing himâŚissues, and he decides to visit the surviving human colonies to get away for a bit.
What he finds isnât what we was expecting, as he encounters the newest result of the Guild Wars - fighting between non-merc races. In the absence of Mercenary Guild contracts, many races have decided to fight it out themselves, and someone is happily supplying them with the weapons they need.
Meanwhile, Jimâs longtime friend, Splunk - or Jâasa as sheâs known to the Dusman - has returned to the 2nd Level Hyperspace home where the Dusman have spent the last 20,000 years hiding. She goes there to research more about the Raknar, hoping to find some answers for whatâs happening to Jim.
What she finds is a plot within her own raceâs leadership which will result in changes to her entire life, and not all for the better. Itâs time for the Dusman to descend from 2nd Level Hyperspace and rejoin the rest of the galaxy.
The Guild Wars arenât quite over yet, though, and there are still depths for civilization to sink furtherâŚ.
