The Island on the Edge of Forever

Nestled within the Island lies a deep mystery...

When Asha accepts a mission to recover a sacred stone capable of raising the dead, she doesn't expect her ship to be attacked in orbit over an unknown world. Asha and her commander, Mira, are dragged into the planet's wild ocean, and she barely manages to escape a vast underwater complex. Once she reaches the surface, Asha discovers a mysterious island that comes to life with dancing villagers and roaring bonfires every night, only to vanish without a trace each morning, leaving her feeling alone and confused.

Meanwhile, Zahn has taken Oonak's ship, still strangely silent, on a mission of his own, led to a subterranean network where Vayuna says he will be needed. Yet there are greater struggles ahead for both of them. Vicious creatures known as the ha lurk in the shadows and trail Asha's every move. Even worse, she finds Mira on the brink of death, unable to help her find the stone. Time is running out, and Asha must rely on her courage, intuition, and healing skills to have any hope of success. But she soon discovers that she's not the only one searching desperately for the sacred stone....
