James Diarkis is a simple man, not one to get involved or go out of his way to make himself known to the world. He enjoys hobbies like driving sports cars, playing with model trains and cooking! When he's not by himself he spends his time with friends and family. James isn't your typical main character. In fact, he'd prefer to be nameless and in the background of every scene.
Unfortunately, the continuity of life that James enjoys is not safe from the dangers of Mars, the world in which he currently resides. You see, millions of years ago Mars was inhabited by people and deities with enormous power. A simple man living a simple life is at the mercy of the powers that be, and whether James likes it or not . . . he is going to find himself at the forefront of events that will change Mars forever. And in the process, he might discover that the role of background character doesn't suit him after all . . .
