As an illegal clone of the murdered galactic princess, Dora's face would get her killed the minute she steps off her dull farming moon.

What fate doomed this village whose men were taken as slaves just six years earlier? From the hidden birthing hut, Panacea, daughter of the god of healing, watches, raging, helpless to intervene. Studying the raiders, she recognizes the leader, the rogue prince Aphoron, whose service to Poseidon has already wreaked havoc across the land.

The god releases a monster shark to shut down trade and lays a sleeping spell on the four kings who hold sway in the lands claimed by the ancient goddess Eurynome.
