King Grandres, of the Kalicos race, craves the Titan Crown as it was once worn by the great kings of the empire, and he helped rebuild it after the former home world was destroyed. He now shares the planet Daheza with his nemesis, Queen Fasjey, and resents being forced to live on the planet with the warrior queen by the Yatavra-System Lords.
The renegade force is filled with pirates who intend to fight the System Lords. The tyrants control many races with fear and tax them mercilessly. The System Lords Predict that there will be a war between them and some powerful races who have strong allies. Supreme Lord Master Mocowas believes the System Lords should reign over every race, and they will stop at nothing to stay in a place of power as dictators who want to be the most dominant force their enemies have ever known.
