human conquest, the obsession of the Plan of Man, tyrannical ruler of
Earth.
STARCHILD
A mysterious being of awesome powers, the
Starchild has sent an ultimatum to Earth, demanding that the Plan of Man abdicate his control over humanity. If not, the Starchild will
extinguish the Sun and the Plan of Man's realm will become a frozen,
lifeless waste.
ROGUE STAR
A passionate human love sets in motion
forces of cosmic power and unleashes the Starchild, a creation that
knows neither love nor hate and understands only "life." But even "life" is not necessarily life as humans define it.
