The talented young artist Daria Dorosh was kidnapped! The police of the entire Union of Free Races were off their feet, looking for the girl, the forces of the “Galactic Patrol” were involved, but the traces were lost at the Astraea station. The Manauk Federation is preparing for war because Daria is not just a talented artist, but a half-breed with precious manna in her blood. She has long been hunted because a representative of any race can become the father of her children. But don't anger the Manauans - they don't give theirs to anyone. And you can’t start games with the Shiyanarians, since they have only one rule - survival of the fittest.
