What makes a small, backwater confederation so important to the sprawing empires the surround it? Why does the Imperium court this minor client state while the Zhodani Consulate refuses to attack them directly? The answer lies in the distant past when the single world of Darrian succeeded in producing stellar flares in its own star and thus stumbled on the secret of the star trigger. Unfortunately for them, the flares devastated their civilization, and they took centuries to rebuild. But when faced with Zhodani agression, the Darrians dug out the old technology and staged a demonstration of their star trigger. What aggressor can continue in the face of a threat to their home suns?
