But not if the determined Akshaya can help it. Before choosing where \u003ci\u003eher\u003c\/i\u003e future lies, she wants to circumnavigate the most historic orb in the universe--the birthplace of humanity: Earth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAkshaya's parents reluctantly agree to her anthropological challenge--one with no assistance from alloy devices, transport, or wary alloys themselves who manage humanity and the regions of Earth called Loka. It's just Akshaya; her equally bold best friend, Somya; and a carefully planned itinerary threading continent by continent across a wondrous terrain of things she's never seen: blue skies, sunrises, snowcapped mountains, and roiling oceans.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs the adventure unfolds, the travelers discover love and new friendships, but they also learn the risks of a planet that's not entirely welcoming.
