SCI-FI / FANTASY
Synopsis
Sier Avaren is a researcher, working for the Celeis company in an outpost on the alien planet Archeiah.
All life there possesses ichor - a dark blue liquid - instead of blood, which absorbs the mysterious energy called "starlight" that radiates from the core of the planet. The dragonlike creatures known as "nulls" absorb the most starlight of them all, and may be the key to understanding the secrets of Archeiah.
About
