Frivolity Higgs values her intuition above all things, but her integrity comes a close second. So when SpaceFly tasks her with training Zarys Riven, the wise but controversial Flid she saved from the Erudon’s legal system, she’s committed to helping him prove his reality-warping ability is more of an asset to society than a threat.
Then she learns they’re being sent to planet Eslan—home to a frivolous culture and her just as frivolous past—with the mission of exposing a corrupt leader with manipulation skills of his own. Even worse, his sidekick is her insufferable ex-boyfriend who’s never learned the meaning of the word no.
With Eman unreachable on a different planet, the duration yet to be determined, does she have what it takes to support Zarys while facing the past she’d rather forget? Only reality can say, and it’s currently being shaped by those around her. Both the planets and the stars will need to align for her to succeed at shaping her own.
This is the fourth book in my Space Tales series, a novella of about 27,800 words (96 pages).
