3,500 A.D. Thanks to the revolutionary gravity wings technology,
mankind was finally able to leave the confines of the Earth's solar
system and seek out earth type planets capable of supporting human
life. Professor Peter Blackwood, a former soldier, planetary
explorer and teacher is a citizen of a powerful interstellar
Confederation. Deciding to retire from decades of working in space
and confronting hostile alien environments, he seeks a
well-deserved retirement on an exotic planet of New Caledonia,
where he plans to settle down and start a family. But on the way to
his new home a mysterious energy cloud snatches him from his
hyperspace tunnel, takes control of his ship and throws him into
another part of the galaxy where he is forced to land on an alien
planet many light years away from home. The alien planet to
Blackwood's surprise does contain life, an intelligent human life.
Saved from native predators by an enigmatic young female with
godlike powers, he learns that humans on planet Enigma are all
descendants of the original crews of starships forced to land on
this planet by the red cloud centuries ago. And on Enigma human
beings are divided into commoners and powerful overlords, humans
with immense powers of creation and destruction. Blackwood's
arrival was foretold by an ancient prophecy. Forced into a
dangerous sociopolitical game by a powerful alien intelligence,
Blackwood has no choice but to transform himself from a scientist
into a revolutionary. With millions of innocent lives at stake
failure is not an option.
