The Swallower of Worlds-better known as Legion, a mysterious alien race that was responsible for destroying Earth long ago-has arrived on the planet of Anaisha. At least this is what Carrie Green is led to believe after awakening in an underground structure known as the Complex. Unsure if the information being fed to her is true or not, or why she is being worshiped as a deity by fanatical cult followers of the flame element, Carrie makes it her priority to escape the Complex and the clutches of a madman from her past. David Corbin, the only man who may be able to save Anaisha from the cold grip of Legion, is on his way to Galtaia Penitentiary as a prisoner, escorted by the maniacal Agent Parks. Housing many of Anaisha's most dangerous criminals, most of whom David helped put away, the prison, it seems, will become David's crypt. But as allies and enemies continue to scramble to find the timepiece-an ancient artifact with unknown origins and powers-one person believes David to be the hero he was in the past and seeks to rescue him from his living nightmare to help save Anaisha from its own.
