Second Earth

"It was the beginning...of the end."

Second Earth, the site of the worst massacre of the Great Galactic War half a decade ago, loomed large before the supercarrier Rhea. A beautiful gemstone against the backdrop of the endless, star-filled void, the planet beckoned the Sector Command carrier and her intrepid crew as a parent would to its long-departed child.

Adding to the mystery was the fact that the orbiting defensive satellites--put in place to protect the riddles of the world--were mysteriously missing.
