A disgraced duke plots a coup against the Emperor using a fleet of ancient, cathedral-like dreadnoughts. His campaign is fraught with poisoned goblets at grand galas, duels with vibro-rapiers in zero-gravity mausoleums, and the uncovering of a bloodline curse that rots the royal family's cloned descendants. ⚠️ Content Ownership Notice All stories, artwork, thumbnails, and animations featured on this channel are original creations of Galactic Horrors.
