Taking place in the year 3030 on a planet named Kepler 22-b far away from the world and life we know today, Destiny: Dusk of an Empire, follows the riveting story of Mathel Smith, a young man determined to reach his goals, protect others over himself, and help those who he cherishes. Ten years following the destruction of his childhood home and the government capture of his parents, Mathel adopts a peaceful life farming, helping his adopted family, and stargazing. But even the simplest of times can become plagued by tragedy. Noticing the government's unusually high presence on the outskirts of his Village, Mathel makes the choice to investigate and stumbles upon a startling discovery that propels him back to the forefront of the government's interest. When the government stormed his home once more and threatened everything he held dear for a second time, Mathel refused to let history repeat itself. Thanks to a device implanted into his heart as an infant, Mathel discovers and activates his dormant powers and makes the choice to take both his and the world's fate into his own hands. As he leaves everything he has ever known behind, Mathel must learn to grapple with the horrors of war, loss, and difference between proper justice, and hateful revenge. In this riveting tale of triumph, loss, war, and boundless ambition, Destiny: Dusk of an Empire encapsulates the good, the bad, and the ugly of human nature as one young man seeks to change the world for the better.
