Keix is rescued from an underground prison by her friends Zej and Pod. They tell her that she's been imprisoned for two years by Atros, the organization she had joined as a trainee soldier since she was fourteen. She doesn't want to believe them, but the facts - her weakened body, a tracker exclusively developed by Atros implanted in her and partial memory loss - and a mind-compelling charm cast by Pod's Maii, an Ifarl, an ancient mysterious race, leave her no choice but to leave with them.
