Arman Lance was supposed to travel the galaxy with his father, not watch him die. He was supposed to experience the adventures from his father's stories, not isolate himself from the world. He was supposed to join the Embassy Program, fly across the galaxy, and find Ladia Purnell, the girl he fell in love with years before. Clinging to his fading hopes and dreams, Arman joins the Embassy to fulfill that last promise. He knows if he finds Ladia again, he'll be happy. But on this journey, he'll discover there is more to life than chasing a desperate obsession. There are opportunities to be taken, choices to be made, and a story to be told.
