Description
Septium Palace was one of great luxury. White marble arches encasing every window, door, entrance and exit. Stained glass windows depicting the great achievements of past residents, gold gilded everything, drapes made from rich velvet and carpets made from the hides of beasts hunted oh so cruelly. The floors were made of white quartz. On the walls hung only the finest of the hand painted portraits. The palace was, in every sense of the word, luxurious. But oh my god was it tacky. ~~~~~ In an attempt to pursue her dreams as a cyber-racer, Lotte- a young merchant's daughter, hires Fenn- a bounty hunter with a dark past and a familiar face, to help fake her death and escape her family. She didn't expect to find her "dead" lover alive and well. And she definitely didn't expect said lover to be a wanted criminal, in search of a way to take down the High Empress and her tyrannical government; the Empirical Regime. As she travels across the Universe with her new companion, she collects a family and finds the secret to taking down the High Empress.
