About the book: 2023 / Fifty years ago, the ancient theocratic civilization of ӧssean came into contact with people and over the past years has significantly changed human society. The former ambassador of earthlings to Oasse, Lukas Hildebrandt, decided to find a way to resist the influence of aliens and achieved what he intended, but at the same time inadvertently touched the darkest secret of his invincible opponents. Because of his actions, a power struggle begins in the seemingly unshakable alien church, the center of their culture, and the flaring conflict is being watched by something else, a cold and indifferent mind that lurked in the depths of space, but has now decided to act. Lucas himself is trying to establish contact with the weapon that he wanted to turn against ӧssean - a telepath from another planet. But how to talk to someone who knows your every thought, every fear? How to make someone listen who knows everything about you, but remains a mystery himself?
