A ship traversed through the cosmos ...
"Be sure to maintain a far distance from that asteroid belt," said Captain Joseph Marinescu.
"Yes, sir, we should reach the homeworld in 121 days," replied the ship's AI Navigation system.
Joseph sat down next to his daughter, Sarah.
"Papa, what's that asteroid belt?"
"Oh, it surrounds the entire old homeworld's solar system because of The Great Destruction."
"The Great Destruction?"
"Yes, Sarah, didn't you learn this in history class?"
"Um, I sort of wasn't paying attention." She blushed.
"Uh-huh." Joseph shook his head." So anyways, ages ago, there was a notorious Martian-based leader who used powerful weapons to attack other colonies on different planets, so all the people united to stop him."
"But no one can live there anymore?"
"Well, yes, as his final maneuver, he triggered a superweapon."
"Why, Papa?"
"Because, to him, his ideology was more important than life itself."
"But why did he trigger the superweapon?"
"Oh, that's because he exhausted all his other weapons. So he had nothing to lose."
"One person with so much power?"
"Indeed. It's why we no longer choose one political leader—to prevent autocracy. Now, we always elect a diverse council of many."

The Elements: Silver Coin Saga - Book 1
Death comes with the Harvest. Salvation lies in the Valley of the Moon, along the path of Martial Magic. Xan always assumed he would be apprenticed to an herbalist in the sleepy village of Mogu and follow the Path of Peace, just like his father before him. It is the way—has always been the way. But when his village is sacked by a raiding force of vicious monsters, corrupted by dark Qi, life as Xan knows it is over. Family dead. Villagers slain. His home burnt to ash. Now, all Xan wants to do is figure out why his people were targeted and get revenge on the merciless creatures sweeping across the continent like a plague of locusts. Spreading their vile corruption.
