Through the Shattered Door

Bastion is burning.The last survivors of humanity have turned on one another, their voices stolen by the cadence of the Commander-the scarred predator who commands an army of raptors and tyrants with a single word. Their only hope lies in the Exodus Machine, a fractured time-gate powered by crystals pulled from the earth itself.But the machine is no savior. It is a mirror, reflecting the rage and fear of those who touch it, shaping visions of futures too vast and terrible to comprehend. For Elira Vey, the scientist who first learned to play its song, each note is a choice: guide her people toward salvation, or surrender their will to the golden eye watching from the ashlands.When the machine tears open a door and drags Bastion into a world beyond time, survival demands more than endurance. It demands a voice strong enough to drown out the monsters-inside the jungle, and inside themselves.
