On his sixteenth birthday, the Aetherian Rex Himmel learns that he is special--but no one will tell him why. Ordered by Aetheria's leader to join the militaristic Aetherian Cover Force, Rex soon finds himself involved in an investigation of several mysterious, frozen Cthonian bodies that have been discovered in Aetheria. Just as his team finds a reason for the bodies' appearance, Aetheria's power plant is destroyed in a violent attack from below.

Having survived a firefight with Cthonians below, Rex and Aral flee back up to Aetheria. As soon as they arrive, the two are separated and interrogated. Facing his government's refusal to accept the truth about Cthonia, Rex embarks on a quest to find Aral and rescue her from torture and imprisonment by the ever-more-paranoid Head Ductor, the ruler of Aetheria. Fortunately for them, a member of the militaristic Aetherian Cover Force decides to turn his back on the Head Ductor.

As Rex and Maire reunite, Aetherian operatives swarm Cthonia. The Cthonians, Rex, Maire, and Aral flee, but they are soon embroiled in a firefight with an advance Aetherian guard.

While below, they encounter Aral, a sixteen-year-old Cthonian--the only person left alive after the Cthonians' botched attack on the AEtherian power plant. But when Aral realizes that Rex Himmel is related to an AEtherian asylum-seeker living among the Cthonians, Rex understands that Aral might be the connection he needed to rebuild his broken family"--Provided by publisher.
