For generations, the Lionmen of Nide, a noble race of leonine warriors, have served the galactic empire. Ki Lawwnum, commander of the Imperial Guard, has seen Emperor Ozenscebo XVII's madness grow, testing his loyalty to the royal family.

Rebellion spreads, threatening the empire and Princess Natanha, whom Ki has protected since birth.

Now, Ki must choose between his duty to the emperor and the survival of the empire. [Adapted from Good Reads]
