The Peacekeepers

When the Peacekeeper falls ill and dies, the responsibility falls to Nimri to take up her grandfather's Tribe's Staff of Peace and fulfill the duties as a Chatterre Peacekeeper. Unfortunately, Nimri's grandfather jealously guarded his power and failed to train her for the role. Worse, she did not inherit his magical abilities and knows only the powers of healing. Meanwhile, several galaxies away, the Shadow Warrior Colonel Larwin Atano crashes onto a inhospitable planetoid when his spacefighter is damaged by a dragon-like being. He and his android GEA-4 seek shelter deep below the surface of the planetoid a portal connects Nimri to the planetoid, and she unknowingly falls into his world startling them both. Nimri believes that Larwin is a god sent to save her people from a rival tribe across the river. Larwin's home world has destroyed their eco system and measures wealth by the plant life kept within their buildings. He sees invasion of Nimri's world as a way to provide much needed resources to his home world as well as promotions and wealth for himself. Little do either Nimri or Larwin suspect that danger lies from a much more dangerous foe.
