Marianne is going to be a Deathless, a member of the immortal ruling class whose solemn duty is to shepherd humanity and protect them from the horrors that lurk among the stars. But first she'll need to prove herself worthy, something easier said then done. And as she gets closer and closer to getting what she wanted, becoming more than human, she's forced to question if her dreams are really worth abandoning her humanity. Adam just woke up on an alien planet with no memories. The mysterious voice on the radio says that's because she made him. He's a bit skeptical though since he already knew his name when he woke up. Still, before he can worry about anything, like why he's so damn short, he needs to figure out how to survive on a hostile planet and an "ally" who is trying to turn him into some kind of living weapon.
