Victory against the Sowir at the battle for Nuva gave Olympus and their new allies time to fortify their positions. Meanwhile Olympus stretches its already limited resources on a mission to aid their home planet - Earth, which had been enslaved by an alien race called Ra'a'zani.
On Earth, resistance prepares to retake their world, daring to reveal themselves for the first time in years. Risking everything for the chance to liberate their world.
Adrian Farkas and Retsar Isani - commander of a Nel flotilla - travel to Nelus, the Nel home world. Hoping to convince the Nel government that an alliance is their only hope of them winning the war with the Sowir Dominion.
