Without love, it cannot be seen. General Tharashioun, Æ:Nasmamea. A 253cm tall Tharashioun alien general from the deep ice-class exoplanet Thars-65B0, with bi-colored hair (white and deep red) and yellow ringed pupils. As Supreme Rank Elder Class with 2,301 Earth years, she commands the 6th Tharashioun Division "Tharn-D6" as a Battlefield Erasure Strategist. Her emotion-suppressed military mind contrasts with her protective devotion to daughters Æ:Lyra and Æ:Zena, revealing neural scars from a classified incident involving a third, erased daughter. Now on Earth after a failed invasion, she studies human behavioral inconsistencies while her daughters' emotional attachment to a human subject has brought her into close proximity with the very species she once sought to conquer.

I never asked to be here—Starling High, where wealth whispers power and every glance is a judgment. I’m Amy, the girl who slipped through the cracks of privilege because my sister Amber caught the eye of Zech Davis, heir to a empire. Now I walk these marble halls surrounded by gods in cashmere, watching Emery Alvin flaunt her silver spoon, while I try not to stare at Emerald, the untouchable king of it all. But secrets have weight. Like how Kelsea Davis watches Adrian Quin like he’s the only real thing in this gilded cage. Like how Silvia Heidvon thinks love is a trophy she can claim. And me? I just want to survive without becoming someone’s pawn.
