At the start of the story, the characters are on the Neilson-Aldebar space liner, "Ekova", where young Janice unexpectedly reunites with Hekalu Selba after he had supposedly been on a quest for ancient artifacts on Mars. Tension arises when Austin, Janice’s companion, feels an unsettling aura surrounding Hekalu. When strange and alarming occurrences begin to haunt Austin’s thoughts, the narrative hints at deeper layers of mysterious plots involving ancient treasures and possibly threatening beings.
