It was only supposed to be a simple recon mission. Yet, instead, Noah finds himself stranded on a completely alien world, separated from nine others that were supposed to land with him, quickly realizing that all the data they had on the planet was false. Not only was intelligent life very much present, and not only did they look just the same as people from Earth, but there was another, clear distinction between the two worlds that nobody predicted -- this one... had magic. Noah will have to use nearly four decades of experience as both a soldier and a mercenary to navigate the unknown and dangerous waters of the Ethernon Peninsula, all the while trying to understand what went wrong, where did the nine others go, and whether it was at all possible to go back home... to Earth.
