Skylight Fallout

An old tale tells of a figure destined to open a source of enormous power. Until the Century Eclipse arrives, this person, called the Skylight Fallout, remains an unknown.

Four years after leaving Skylight University, Jet Stroud is caught in a conflict between two clans of an ancient people, the Heliographi. As the newest member of the Lucem, he has gained enhanced body and mind, and he has sworn to shield the Skylight System from the Atrum, their deadly rivals. Mastering these new powers is harder than he expected, and his training keeps slipping behind. Part of his duty is guarding his warden, Kamber Caster, as she begins her first semester at the university. In secret, Jet also watches over his old friend, Cutter Jade, aware that the Atrum will go to any lengths, kidnapping and murder included, to get ahead.

When the president of the Skylight System orders the Lucem to look into several stolen shipments of rare-earth materials, Jet learns that a bounty has been placed on his life. Assassins come after him, and several attempts on his life come close to succeeding, leaving him doubting his own abilities. Can he be strong enough to protect the people he cares about, or will they pay for his shortcomings?

As the Century Eclipse approaches, the Lucem suspect the Atrum are scheming toward something dangerous. Facing that threat, the Lucem must take up their oath and defend the citizens of Skylight. Jet is forced to face his former classmates, and he must decide the fate of those closest to him. Who the true Skylight Fallout is, and what that person will uncover, remain open questions, as does whether the Lucem can stop the Atrum's plans.

The second phase of The Prism Effect is about to begin, and neither the Atrum nor the Lucem can alter their fate, or so it seems.
