Giant magical mecha, transforming heroes, and titanic monsters clash in this love letter to Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers, Pacific Rim, and Godzilla, blended into an epic fantasy journey of self-discovery.
Every step is a choice.
Seven years after being kidnapped and forged into a Pilot-a magical knight tasked with slaying giant beasts sent from another world-Maia Sunderland is ready to give up the battle. Most of the world blames her for the lives she's failed to save as she continues to wage a war she never wanted to fight. Her family and allies are gone. All she has left is Scarlet, her magic-fueled, walking war machine. As the last of the Vanguardians, Scarlet is the only weapon capable of standing against the invading menace.
As an incurable disease ravages Maia from within, a young officer emerges from an oppressive empire with orders to claim Scarlet for her emperor. Though reckless and inexperienced, this new Pilot somehow shares Maia's ability to command Scarlet, making her uniquely suited to succeed Maia when she passes.
With little time left before she succumbs to her illness, Maia is left with a deadly choice: train an unlikely apprentice to take her mantle, placing the most destructive weapon in the world in the hands of a tyrant, or save her would-be successor from walking the same bloody path Maia was forced down, leaving the world without a defender.
