      “ALWAYS REMEMBER, LIES CAN BE JUST AS POWERFUL AS THE TRUTH.” As the door slid open to the high-security section of the Royal Library, Professor Yor Vanderlord recalled how his great-grandfather Yorlik’s words led him to this moment. Over a century and a half ago, planetary scientists predicted an environmental crisis threatening to annihilate Koda's humanoid population so the SEEDER program was developed, launching deep-space missions to discover habitable worlds. When no livable planet was found, the SEEDER program was scrapped and the DOME project was initiated. The global economy became focused on placing domes over only the most prominent cities to insure a portion of the population’s survival. That’s when Yorlik Vanderlord (aka Yorlik the Great), who was thought lost in space, returned from his century-long SEEDER mission, but the details of his voyage were shrouded in mystery and never told. What happened on his great-grandfather’s epic voyage? What did those cryptic words mean? Now, as Yor entered the library, he was more determined than ever to discover the truth.
