When Simsa's mentor dies, she must scrape a poorexistence from an unyielding planet. But, then Thom, a star ranger, arrives fromthe heavens, and he leads Simsa on a path to the discovery of her origins thattakes both through danger to the ultimate revelation. The truth may lie below inthe ancient high tech Forerunner ruins where Simsa was first discovered as ainfant, but these cavernous mazes are far from quiet and dead - and whatSimsa discovers there will change her life, and perhaps galactic civilizationitself, forever!
