Fragments of Skyonae

Commander Ryoko Hyakutake earned it. Her new title, honor, respect, and the respect of the Skyonian Imperial Military. But she'd throw her reputation away to bring back those she lost. Crippled with survivor's guilt, she, along with the rest of the military, search for the remains of a sacred sword to strike back against a god and his curse. But when Ryoko becomes the first person to slip free of the god's grasp, she uncovers both a conspiracy against her within the ranks of the military and the secrets of the god's curse. Each new revelation about the curse could put her life further on the line. But there is a chance those secrets could save her people. Will she uncover the curse's secrets in time to save her people? Will she save herself? Or will the Skyonian Imperial Military destroy itself?
