Starborn Sovereign
Isaac Valen has always lived in the shadow of a dying star system—one destined to collapse into a black hole. As a lowly worker on a backwater mining colony, his life seemed insignificant, caught in the inevitability of destruction. But everything changes the day he encounters a strange artifact buried deep within ancient temple ruins. A mysterious force activates it, and Isaac is thrust into a world of power, secrets, and a system that promises him the chance to escape the coming void.
What he doesn’t expect is that the artifact grants him far more than just a way to survive—it bestows upon him the ability to build and command a starship of unimaginable power. With the knowledge to construct entire fleets, establish colonies, and rise to sovereignty, Isaac finds himself tasked with more than mere survival. He is given the opportunity to forge an empire from the ruins of his shattered world.
But the power to create a kingdom comes with its own set of challenges. Isaac must navigate hostile forces, both human and alien, who see him as a threat. He must recruit allies from the remnants of dying civilizations and build an empire capable of challenging the dark forces closing in on his system. And in a universe teetering on the brink of collapse, he must make impossible choices—between trust and betrayal, allies and enemies, empire and personal sacrifice.
As the stars burn out and the black hole draws nearer, Isaac’s struggle to survive becomes a battle for dominance. With the power of the artifact at his command, Isaac must rise from nothing, build an empire that can stand the test of time, and fight to reclaim his place in a universe that seems bent on erasing all of humanity’s legacy.
In a dying universe, the only way to survive… is to build your own empire.
