Sixteen years ago, rebellion swept the galaxy known as the Belt of Jewels.

The Leonov royal family was murdered-down to their youngest child, Princess Anya-and the Union government seized power. Stacia doesn't think much about politics, spending her days rambling her father's vineyard with her friends, Clio and Pol.

But then a Union ship appears burning through the sky, bearing the leader of the Union, the Direktor Eminent himself, who declares that Stacia's sleepy village is a den of empire loyalists. More shocking, he claims that Princess Anya Leonova is alive-and it's Stacia!

As their home explodes into chaos, Pol smuggles Stacia to a hidden escape ship, leaving Clio in the hands of the Union. Stacia sets her heart on a single mission: she will find and rescue Clio, even with the whole galaxy on her trail.
