Beware The Space Between Stars
A group of kid filmmakers sneak into Imperion City, quarantined since The Gift, to get the perfect shot for their sci-fi film, but their boldness invites attention from Superion's Grand Arsenal, putting their small town in the crosshairs of the world's most formidable armed force. 
THE WORLD EVALEON resides in the galaxy of Lyris. After centuries of empire building, warring nations, fledgling democracies becoming world powers, and subtle allegiances manipulating global affairs from the shadows, the two reigning countries of Ondera and Superion now lord over some 4.2 billion people. While Imperion remains a neutral parliamentary nation, The Onderan Sovereignty is a democratic republic that honors the ways of their ancestors, the Sovereign Crescent, yet possesses a vast military machine known as The Supremacy. They need to because just south of them the Superion Domain, an imperial powerhouse, boasts the indomitable Grand Arsenal. In the year 1660 of the Crescent Phase, Superion staged an emergency on the national border between Sevargdon and Socarcess. Ondera promptly responded, and fell prey to Superion’s trap. This kicked off a thirty year Cold War that would give way to a ten year Border Conflict, ultimately leading to the threat of a World War until the arrival of Inversa, and the blessing of The Gift. The Gift would prove to be completely transforming, thrusting the entire planet into an uncharted territory as some would attempt to claim Inversa’s true power, and others would try to save everyone from certain doom.
