Xing was different, he also had problems. Orphaned, suffering from gender dysphoria and slowly dying he had little hope for the future until he met the alien, Khella Phar. She could give him everything he wanted and all it would cost him was his humanity.
Years later, Xing, now Xia Phar, has a decent life for a human on Saer’kah. She doesn’t wear a restriction band and the Saer’khi family that has raised her since the Migration treats her like one of their own. They also saved her life with an experimental nanotech procedure. Thanks to them, she was able to live a life not bound to a hospital bed living off machines, and the only cost seemed to be her humanity. Other humans on Saer’kah have no reason to love the Saer’khi though. At least Xia has some semblance of freedom. She knows she can’t help them all but even if she can just help a few, then shouldn’t she?
So when humans decide to rebel against the Saer’khi and she discovers the real reason for the presence of humans and other aliens on Saer’kah, Xia decides to take action. Enlisting the help of her family and her friend Tarek, she decides to help as many people as she can to prevent bloodshed. She just needs to break everyone out of the alien barracks without arousing suspicion and get them off Saer’kah on one of the newly built colony ships. Sounds pretty easy right? Now Tarek’s crush on her is the least of her problems and leaving Saer’kah is just the beginning.
