Whenever a child is born in the land of Pontus, a star appears in the sky. Children grow up watching their star, because at a certain point in their adolescence it's going to fall. When it does, for those who are lucky enough to retrieve it, they are allowed to choose a gift. The world is divided into nations based upon which gifts these children choose. There are the blindingly fast Flares, whose long golden hair trails like a streaking comet when they run. There are the Nebulae, who are gigantic, impossibly strong creatures. There are the Hawkeyes, who are blessed with magnified perception of every physical sense.
Starfall follows twin brothers Ducasus and Malleus, born into slavery in the country of Flaroria, desperately hoping for their stars to fall. When they do, it's like nothing they ever expected, launching them down a twisting path of adventure, discovery, and ultimately a war for the very soul of Pontus.
