Ynna

The ongoing battle between the people of Kur and the Scwurm is escalating, and the Enso of Kur is not sure how much longer they can continue and survive as a planet. It seems the neighboring planet, Luxon, doesn't have the same problem, but why? Kur needs help before they are taken out completely, and an alliance with Luxon may be just what they need. Ynna is next in line to lead Luxon. When she learns that her parents have made an arraignment with the Enso of Kur for her to be his family's guest for a solar month without conferring with her first, she's upset.
The two leaders hope that her being on Kur will stave off any further attacks. However, she's always wanted to see that planet's oceans and lush beauty. Hoping the deal may not be as bad as it sounds, she agrees to their plan. Bron isn't going to be the next Enso of Kur. That honor will go to his older brother, Ko. However, he's intrigued as to why they're going to host Ynna. He suspects there's more to this so-called agreement than they're being told.
Fortunately, he and the young woman quickly form a mutual friendship. As the fate of two planets rests in her hands, Ynna soon finds herself at odds when the Scwurm suddenly attack Kur despite her presence there. Before she knows it, she's at risk of revealing her true self to Bron and the others. And worse, losing that tenuous connection with the young man she's starting to grow fond of. Her decision unexpectedly becomes one she can't avoid when she's forced to execute the one thing she was born to do.
