It’s year 2050. Nuclear tensions disturb the balance of power in this sector of the universe. With missiles pointed in every direction, Earth scrambles for peace. A Stelorian is the final frontier.
Beings born of Stelorium, called Justices, are honored throughout the universe for their peace-keeping missions. With the ability to mimic the appearance of any life form and speak every language in existence, Justices impersonate government leaders to stop the most volatile conflicts before worlds are destroyed.
However, they have one weakness; capable of stripping their life force, the Orb of Venovak. The OV was created by Pernifus IV, exiled from Stelorium for corruption and murder. Legend says, the OV feeds on the souls of the slaughtered Stelorians and the chaos that ensues across the universe.
So, who will save Earth from the fear and greed of man? Who will end the perversion of Pernifus IV?
Liam-Lor VII of Stelorium. A microscopic passenger on a 74,000-mile-per-hour jet. Spherical matter thrusts into Earth’s atmosphere, friction making molten ore.
Sploosh! The capsule pierces the surface of the Pacific, eventually settling in an underwater lake on the ocean floor.
Soaking in the methane-rich brine, metallic protrusions begin to extend from the hissing capsule. The exo-skeleton turned endo- as the limb-like extensions become swallowed by a gelatinous brown coating. A humanoid is brewing in the soup of Mother Earth.
The man fully forms. The flesh begins to bubble as if causing the water to boil. The ocean floor begins to pulse rhythmically.
Boom! He shoots through 8,000m of water to the surface.
Liam-Lor hovers above his oceanic womb, like a dark-chocolate-laden marble sculpting of Ancient Greece. A new chapter begins for Liam-Lor VII of Stelorium, his first mission.
Will Earth find peace with Liam-Lor or be left in pieces with Pernifus IV?
