The Founder’s Strain

The Plague, a mysterious and lethal illness, has spread across the galaxy. As once mighty civilizations wither in the face of the affliction, mankind stands alone in its immunity, scrambling to find a cure for the disease before being overrun by the millions of refugees fleeing their ravaged worlds in its wake. The galaxy’s last true hope for salvation lies on Dawn, a planet where all lifeforms share the same resilience to the scourge as humanity. With little choice left in the matter, the Human Empire deploys an expedition towards the pristine world in search of answers, unaware of the lurking truth that every plague has a bearer and every cure has a price.
