Dusk of the Stellae

Darkness stretches across the sky of Spheria 9. Mena learns that she is infected with the same virus that Janus used to murder the Stellae. Mena captures a biohacker named Illythia, who has a hack capable of bring souls back from the Stellae. Far from Spheria 9, Elissa has spent the past year mastering the powers given to her by merging with the baby sphere, whom she now considers her son. Elissa and her son explore a layer of reality called dreamspace, which is inhabited by the souls of the dead. When Mena returns with Illythia, Elissa begins to return many of the fallen nobility to life, even those who suffered the lifeless death. Over the course of ten days, the past and present blur as more and more lost souls return to this life, vieing for control of Elissa's sphere and what lies beyond.
