The Galaxy Forgot Why the "Quarantine Zone" Existed—Humanity Reminded Them

"A locked room does not become harmless because nobody hears anything from inside." For 300 years, the Galactic Restoration Council respected the human-designated Quarantine Zone—a massive region of dead space, strictly forbidden to all. But as centuries passed, alien civilizations began to view the quarantine as nothing more than primitive human superstition. Now, High Chancellor Rhyven has officially ordered the zone to be opened. Despite the desperate warnings of Dr. Claire Whitmore, a human historian who knows the dark truth, the Council fleet crosses the boundary expecting to find a long-lost weapon or a mythical enemy. Instead, ancient systems begin to awaken. The galaxy is about to learn that humanity didn't abandon this sector out of fear—they sealed it because they realized some discoveries are too dangerous for anyone to control.
