It is the year 2500, and humanity has expanded its reach beyond the confines of Earth. In a distant sector of the galaxy, a young man named Erich "Silber" Jaeger is born into a dystopian empire that tightly controls the lives of its citizens. Growing up in a society rife with discrimination, Erich faces an uncertain future as he approaches military conscription. He will spend the next two decades of his life serving in the Armed Forces of the Germanic Star-Empire, fighting against the many enemies of the authoritarian state. As he navigates the treacherous landscape of interstellar warfare, Erich must grapple with his own ambitions and loyalties. Will he rise through the ranks to become the next dictator of the empire, or will he meet a gruesome end on the battlefield? Join Erich on his journey through the Interstellar Age, as he confronts the challenges of war, politics, and personal identity in a universe filled with danger and intrigue.
Lunaria had effectively been kept at a distance by Erich over the coming months. He had wanted to break her spirits by refusing to see her other than for matters of diplomacy. But the woman was resolute, and stubborn in ways which Erich was only now beginning to understand.
If he was not going to speak to her about personal affairs, then she could play the same game. She did not even bother trying to fix the supposed misunderstanding between them. After all, from her perspective, the man genuinely thought that she had betrayed him. An act that was not to be taken lightly.
But even with this, the ancient Elven Empress utterly refused to back down and admit fault. Leading Erich to begin to understand why the grudge existed between herself and her younger sister for a length of time that was quite frankly absurd to even think about.
