When the survivors of Atlantis crash-land on an unfamiliar Earth aboard the spacecraft Cassandra, they carry with them not only the remnants of a lost civilization but the encoded memory of a cosmic promise. Across centuries and continents, from the mystical salons of Montmartre to the ceremonial grounds of Egypt, a scattered lineage of initiates unknowingly converges toward a single appointed moment. A painter haunted by visions, an anthropologist drawn into esoteric circles, a dying leader passing on secret oral histories: each is a thread in a tapestry whose full design remains invisible to them. As the summer solstice approaches and the Circle of the First Family prepares its final session, the Discontinuum Protocol begins to activate, and nothing of what any of them understands as reality will survive it intact.
