The Descent Into Darkness

Walter and Jojo find themselves taken by the biomechanical pirate, Tas’ban, to the lost moon of Lakura to face the leaders of the pirate faculties. Seeking his freedom, Tas’ban elicits the help of the rogue Máel Njáll, bearer of the rainbow Elohim, to seek buyers for Walter’s crystal. But he doesn’t realize that Máel Njáll and the beautiful Khoda Seraphina have their own plans, including using Walter’s Elohim to overthrow Aaró’s leadership and rule Caelum.
Robots, or Non-organics, were obliterated from the Universe during their failed peaceful attempt to seek the rights of their Organic peers. The few remaining, now hidden on Lakura, take Tas’ban, Jojo, and Link to a hidden destination. They believe that the bio-mechanical Tas’ban could bridge Organic and Non-organic life and the resurrection of their cause. But this time, the uprising will not be peaceful.
Meanwhile, Ochi and Düfa head to the ancient world of Edan, only to find that Uriel, the oldest Ang’elm and bearer of an Elohim, has elicited the aid of the Arnőrr to mine the planet’s core for gold Umril to create a new army of Ang’elm. With this reborn force in the Universe and his new ally, Walter Smith, Uriel intends to raze Caelum to the ground. But in this intergalactic conflict, someone close will die.
The first great battle of the Modern Age commences between the army of the Elohim and the army of the golden angels. Only one side will prevail.
