by Yuri Woods
Jacob, a Nailin from the homeworld of Emin, follows his father and a small crew across the stars to the White Planet, a world abandoned for thousands of years and remembered only through fractured legend. They arrive seeking ruins, answers, and whatever remains of a forgotten civilization. Instead, Jacob is drawn into a story far older than himself, one shaped by inheritance, loss, and choices whose consequences reach far beyond the planet beneath his feet.
