Victoria and the Engineer face their greatest challenge yet after Xena receives a terrifying message from Titan command. The Legion's greatest fear has been confirmed. Now, they await a predator from the depths of space, one in which they must unite to face together.

I have nothing - no home, no friends, no concept of this new world, these Titans. All that remains is the old conflict that has blackened my veins and memories of the ones I loved still fresh in my heart. Forgotten for decades.
