    About this ebook

    In a distant binary star system on a planet colonized as an experiment, a group of four friends led by Maha embarks on a desperate quest for survival. 

    Radiation poisoning, starvation, and the impending devastation caused by a pulsar emitting X-rays haunt their peaceful society of Buddhists and Doaists. As their civilization teeters on the brink of collapse, Maha and his friends face a challenging decision: embrace an ancient forbidden path that holds the key to survival or succumb to the impending doom.


     

    A Race Against Existence…

    Maha must harness ancient practices that awaken both good and evil forces to save their society from a tortured life. As the once harmonious world of humans and humanoids splinters into factions, Maha and his friends find themselves caught in the crossfire of blame and desperation. Determined to find a path forward, they venture on a daring journey that takes them far off the planetary trade routes, where they encounter mysterious legends of Earth and the promise of a better future.
