About This Book

A massive sentient brain awakens after millennia and, when contacted by imperial messengers, records its memory of a bygone age: a civilization that once flew on wings and made early voyages beyond its world under ruler Palladin. It recounts the exile of his mutant brother Thid, whose forbidden experiments and alliance with subterranean Termans unleashed hordes, vanished caravans, and a corrosive affliction. The narration traces political choices, scientific hubris, and ecological change that transformed the planet, combining personal recollection with an account of how ancient exploration and conflict produced the present desolation.
