Anika Dinsmore is a ticking time bomb, but so are the defalne trying to kill and infect all human or Amaranthine on the planet. It had been a long, hard day of hunting defalne. They were all exhausted, and Anika Dinsmore wanted to rest. The sense of danger envelopes her. No pheirgr were around. It was against the rules for a sofrir to pursue alone. Their numbers were dwindling. She would lose her meager pay. Lose her meals. But that was the sniff of a child. They call us the suffering. We are their guides and they are our shields. This is the 6th book in The Guardian of Life world. Hope of the Future Daughter of the Red Planet Ancient Scars Under Empty Stars Creations of the Galaxy Sofrir & Pheirgr of Atalantius Omega III
