Back in the days when they inhabited biological bodies, Trazyn the Innumerable and Orikan the Foreteller were the exact opposite of each other. One is a collector of historical curiosities, the head of a museum of the most dangerous objects and creatures in the Galaxy. The other is an incomparable chronomancer and astrologer, capable of predicting and changing the future. But when an artifact appears that may hold the key to the next stage of Necron evolution, the two enter into a millennia-long rivalry that will end civilizations, rewrite events, and leave an indelible mark on both rivals. As mysteries are unraveled and ancient secrets are revealed, only one question remains - will the mutual enmity of Trazyn and Orican lead to the salvation or destruction of the Necron race?
