The great Fire King deemed it so when the Great Mother birthed the Fire King's children from the dry lake beds. All know of His power and scorn, and praise Him with each rising so He may shine down gently and with kindness. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWarrior Class Lieutenant Raq of the Imperial Guard is a proud soldier, an adoring father to his sons, brave, dutiful and honour-bound, a devout servant of the Fire King. He is a true Hlad. But his faith is shattered when an alien craft crash-lands on Hlad from the Great Abyss. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eOne alien, the Dayyid, survives the horrible massacre that follows the crash. Imprisoned, suffering from malnutrition, and studied by the reptilian doctors and scientists, he doesn't forget one of the creatures from the crash site. One who hesitated to kill. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eForced to live together, Raq and the Dayyid learn to understand each other despite the language barrier. But when they learn of a threat to Earth, they discover an almost unbelievable truth that unites them against the Hlad.
