• He was tagged as the 10,392^nd Continuum soldier to land on the planet. And that tag wasn't a military oversimplification: He was, in every sense, a number. A cog in a war machine.
• A machine... that was massively outgunned. Around him, Continuum soldiers fell in wave after wave of the native's counter-attacks. Within hours of the battle starting... only #10,392 was left alive.
• And as the desperation of that sets in, his mind seizes on the spark of an idea: a flash of creativity arriving unbidden from the ether.
• It is... a design. A weapon design.
• He builds it quickly, as though it were a a repetitive task he had done thousands of times before. And yet it is so new.
• So new... and so unique.
• And only afterward, only after the lethal results were made clear, did it occur to him that he had created it.*He was a MAKER now... and his life would be changed forever.
