Years after crash-landing on Earth, Eupherbia Triyss, a young alien princess from the mystical planet Eolea, has built a life in Lexington, Ohio. She has grown fond of humans and her boyfriend, Brett Palevich, also known as Cyber Knight. However, her peaceful existence is disrupted when an automated spacecraft arrives to take her back to Eolea, which is on the brink of war due to political factions and the underground Order of Aether seeking control over the planet's resources. As the rightful heir, Eupherbia grapples with her responsibilities while confronting the trauma of her mother's mysterious death and the pressure to restore peace. In Eolea, she encounters old allies and new enemies while discovering her extraordinary powers linked to her world’s life force. Torn between her love for Brett and her duty to her people, Eupherbia must navigate her path, reclaim her throne, and decide whether to embrace her fate or forge her way in the vast universe.
