Now that Jake was back to normal, they boarded the ship and made a quick hyperspace jump back to the dying sun. When they left the ship a short time later, they didn't find it right away.
Where there was supposed to be a blinding ball of light, there was only darkness. It was just as they had suspected, but it unnerved them more than they were willing to admit. It was an overwhelming sight.
The death of a star.
When a star died, it was supposed to explode or collapse under its own weight, but much more rarely did it simply snuff itself out. This was a fate usually reserved for smaller stars.
"Jake, do your thing." Hade sighed.
"Sure."
The Myrtharian flew to the cooled sun, and touched down like a meteor on a hilly plain of solid hydrogen. It was a dark gray desert, bare and frozen. But this time, Jake didn't feel the cold.

For those of you who don't follow Discord or don't read Blood Legacy and didn't see the message I hurt my lower back working out and have been nearly unable to sit down since.
I'm still on sick leave next week so I'm going to do my best to make up for the missed releases for both novels. Sorry again for the unexpected hiatus.
