Imperium I: The Return of the Archons

Ancient powers awaken. A galactic civilization stands on the brink.

For centuries, the Imperium has ruled the stars.

Its fleets command space.
Its laws shape thousands of worlds.
Its leaders believe humanity stands alone at the pinnacle of power.

They are wrong.

When a series of unexplained events ripples across the Imperium — political crises, scientific anomalies, and whispers of forgotten legends — a terrifying truth begins to emerge. Ancient beings once thought to be myth are returning.

They are called the Archons.

As factions within the Imperium struggle for control and hidden histories are brought to light, soldiers, scientists, rulers, and outcasts are drawn into a conflict that will determine the fate of humanity itself.

What begins as rumor becomes revelation.
What was buried becomes inevitable.

The war for the future of the Imperium has begun.
