THE BLACK STAR PROPHECY IS CALLING FOR IT'S PHOENIX The brash Trade Star Captain Ash Standing now lives a quiet life as an acupuncturist, husband, father and priest. While his eyesight slowly fades to black, he does what he can to make his family's life as normal as it can be with him and Kiri as parents. All while being attacked in the name of training with the brotherhood. Kiri splits her time between the Holistic Wing of the Oasis Treatment Center and home. She alone bears the burden of being the only person on Caledonia who legally uses Xenon for a myriad of reasons. While her holistic training allows the drug to have a minimal effect on her, the long term usage is wearing on her soul and body. Add their youngest daughter Buffy, who carries the same gene deletion as Eiden and their world revolves around Kiri's needs, Ash's eyes, and Buffy's disability. Lyris' work as Head Elderess is her priority, but dealing with a new Planetary President who holds no love for her or her former husband taxes her time and fading energy. Let alone managing life with teenagers and a baby again. She focuses on her family as it gives her the stability and satisfaction she needs. Teens will be teens and the quads, Ash and Kiri's, and Lyris and Abrams's twins are dealing with their world as their parents face their own set of problems. As quiet as the current world seems, time and destiny haven't forgotten who Ash is and how the Phoenix has yet to burn and rise from his own ashes.
