Did you hear the story about Max, the boy who kidnapped his grandfather from a nursing home? You didn’t see it on the news? Well, let me tell you about it. Max lives in a small town, much smaller than yours. His grandpa is losing his memory, but still remembers quite a bit. You can imagine how they hurried, Max and his grandpa, followed by old Miss Schneider, who insisted on coming along. Why were they in a hurry? Because everyone was after them. Max had skipped school to rescue his grandpa.

Meet Cat. He thinks everything has its price. You can pay in gold, or you pay in steel. And for the right price, even the entire Sphere of Worlds can be bought. Ever the merchant, he pays in souls, freeing the Goddess of Darkness in the astral fortress of Pandorum and becoming the archnemesis of the most powerful alliance in all of Sphere. Even as an enormous bounty is placed on his head with hunters trailing his every move, he never wavers. His patron, the God of Shadows, sends Cat to the twilight world of the Hole to find the third of the seven Keys.

Now that Cat has discovered his sword’s secret and received the task to collect the Seven Keys, he’s not in a hurry to complete the new quest. Why would he care about the future of the world when he has much more exciting things to do, like claiming his place in the clan, participating in the redistributing of trade influence, and just plain making money? Cat starts building his own trading empire—and ends up getting involved in an all-out economic war. Having gotten the taste of real money, he travels to the Bazaar, the world’s biggest marketplace at the crossroads of trade routes.

Die freie Gemeinschaft des Erdenvolks empfängt einen neuen Aszendenten, einen Piloten und Krieger – aber noch immer schwebt die Kolonie in Gefahr. Ihre Feinde haben ihre üblen Pläne nicht aufgegeben. Die Entscheidung wird während der großen Volksversammlung am leuchtenden Ygg-Baum fallen, bei der alle Bewohner unseres Kreises zusammenkommen. Und es gibt noch eine weitere Bedrohung – sie funkelt am nächtlichen Himmel, steuert die relativistischen Strahlen der Akkretions-Scheibe und überwacht die Veränderungen der Zeichen im himmlischen Kalender.

The Earth freehold received a young Ygg-Tree, and I a golden prize and Petal-in-the-Wind, who is worth more than any gold. Now I am an Ascendant, the leader of a battle spear, and the freehold's first pilot. I am also all but immortal. That secret was revealed to me by the ancient voice who had shared my body for a long time. But why? What had happened to make me like this? And why can't I remember anything?

In the inhabited Circles of the Dyson Sphere the natives call Unity, everything is different. Time here is measured in cycles that change with the signs of the celestial calendar. The lords of the Skythrone set the new rules, and all Nations of the Circle gather for the moot to discuss how to live on.

Vor drei galaktischen Wendungen zerstörte Ewigkeit die Sonne. An ihrer Stelle schwebt nun eine Akkretionsscheibe. Jeder wirft zwei Schatten, und Leben kann lediglich in den Kreisen existieren, die riesige, Licht ausstrahlende Bäume bilden. Außerhalb der Kreise herrschen eisige Kälte und Dunkelheit – und an der Grenze zwischen Licht und Dunkelheit liegt der Schatten, das Land der ewig untergehenden Sonne. Dies ist ein Ort voller seltsamer Kreaturen und ungewöhnlicher Pflanzen, die niemals das Licht erblickt haben, ein Ort, an dem es von Würmern wimmelt.

The natives call the astroengineering contraption built around the black hole the Skythrone. Within it lies Eternity, an afterlife of sorts where chosen Ascendants travel after their death to gain immortality. Yet unlike the heaven and hell of Earth, it is absolutely real, and sometimes, guests who call themselves the emissaries of Eternity come down from there. But are they guests or are they masters?

Als die Arche damit begann, die Kolonisten per Notausstieg von Bord zu schicken, hatte ich dreifach Pech. Das erste Unglück geschah, als die Runenverteidigung der Kel meine Kapsel über einem verbotenen Zirkel abschoss. Das zweite war, dass ich direkt neben dem Grab des Weißen Teufels landete. Und das dritte trat ein, als ich in den Bau eines verwundeten Noxwolfes kletterte und Sternenblut entdeckte. Andere Aszendenten hätten das vielleicht einen Glückstreffer genannt. Aber lassen Sie mich es so sagen: Hätte ich das Sternenblut ignoriert, wäre ich möglicherweise ein normaler Mensch geblieben.

Wie sich herausgestellt hat, bin ich nicht auf der Erde gelandet. Und auch nicht auf einem anderen Planeten. Es ist alles viel schlimmer. Ich stecke in einem bewohnten Kreis einer uralten Dyson-Sphäre, die vor sechs galaktischen Rotationen das Sonnensystem ersetzt hat. Es gibt keinen Mond und keine Sterne – und riesige Ygg-Bäume haben die Rolle der Sonne übernommen. Wie das sein kann? Das weiß niemand. Die Einheimischen nennen diesen Ort Einigkeit, und hier herrschen strenge Gesetze.

Die Bina Shea bezeichnen uns als "Toten Schwarm“. Wir mögen zwar einem Schwarm ähneln, sind aber noch lange nicht tot, sondern noch sehr lebendig. Wir ...

Now that Grey has delivered the city from the attacking hordes, he still has a lot of work on his hands. He needs to pay the Bina Shea a visit, find the Bullet Star, investigate the mysterious Project Aurora—and above all, he needs to restore the First Legion to its former glory. But most importantly, he must eliminate the Daat and cancel the deal that Prometheus struck with the treacherous demon many centuries ago . . .

The Seven Keys have been collected, and the world created solely to entertain has come alive. The one who gains control over them will rule Sphere. Who will it be—the Demon King, the digitized players, the corporations, or the people hiding under the masks of the Seven Brothers? The stakes are higher than ever, and the merchant’s life is once again at risk—after all, he holds one of the Keys that grant the power to create and destroy worlds at will.

By the time Grey had come back with an army of new allies, the Legion had been defeated. Many an Incarnator had fallen as heroes, leaving the City on the brink of destruction. Thousands of souls still trapped inside the Cube are trying to break free from their extradimensional prison while the Star watches impassively from its celestial heights.

The Earth freehold has received a new Ascendant, pilot, and warrior, yet the colony is still in danger, as its enemies haven't abandoned their sinister plans. Everything will be decided at the big moot under the luminous Ygg-Tree, the gathering of the people of our Circle. Another threat is looming—the one twinkling in the night sky, controlling the relativistic jets of the accretion disk, and overseeing the change of Signs in the celestial calendar. The lords of Eternity must not learn who shares my body with me. But who is he, really?

Zwar hat Grey die Stadt von den angreifenden Horden befreit, doch es gibt noch immer sehr viel zu tun. Er muss den Bina Shea einen Besuch abstatten, den Kugelstern finden, mehr über das geheimnisvolle Projekt Aurora in Erfahrung bringen – und vor allem die einstige Pracht der Ersten Legion wiederherstellen. Das Wichtigste jedoch ist, den Daat zu eliminieren und somit das Abkommen zu beenden, das Prometheus vor vielen Jahrhunderten mit dem verräterischen Dämon geschlossen hat...

They say that the Sphere of Worlds has no limits and that its players enter a new universe brimming with mysteries. And this universe is now readying to defend itself. Whoever has got involved in the game just can't stop anymore. In the search for the Keys, Cat and Weldy set off for the Abyss—the netherworlds of the Sphere—where Cat is about to play against the strongest of all the oracles: the legendary Demon King. And the stake in the game is horrendously simple: Cat's own life.

In the endless game of Sphere of Words, the trader named Cat continues searching for the Keys hidden by the dead creators of the virtual reality.
