Prologue: The War for Earth.

Before my planet was destroyed by the Mogadorians, the Council of Elders devised a plan to ensure that no matter what happened the people of Lorien would live on. The elders decided to create five crystals that would be able to restore the planet of Lorien to its former glory when they were brought back to Lorien. The main crystal was given to my granddaughter in hopes of keeping to safe when she was sent to earth with the other Garde that were saved from the destruction.

The council helped me reach twelve years into the future to inform Akela of her task, she is our last hope as a descendant of the old council. Akela must now find and collect the crystals that will not only allow her and the surviving Garde to return to Lorien, but will also help her restore our once beautiful planet.

Akela is currently traveling in search of the first crystal in South America with the help of her bonded, Four and another Garde, Six and a human, Sam. The task that I have left for her is a difficult one and I know the road head will be fraught with danger and now not only does Lorien's fate rests on her shoulders but the fate of planet Earth as well.
