Alia has a history with the mental realm, the plane of existence that connects all sentient minds of the universe. It is how she organizes her extraordinary powers and she needs it now more than ever. Alia is on a mission and she will only be successful if she can sort out all the new psychic activity she senses from the surface of the planet Eel.
The Hyperion (Amazing Alia, the Alia Bk. ^): “Alia has been on the mental plane of existence for over a month. It’s the longest she has ever spent in this state, on this plane of existence, and she realizes that time moves much more slowly here. The Kazi call the mental plane the Dreamscape and it is where they go to meditate.”

Wendy has a new roommate! It’s Aile Lang, one of the original Aliarum, and she has something other than her address in common with Wendy. Aile is also a medium and her ancestors are helping Wendy find her friends.
When the Dead Die (The Brave Chimutengwende Bk. 2): “There are five spirits who follow Aile since she was a patient in the IBF basement. They do not all appear at once, usually there are two elders who accompany her sister Stephanie. Stephanie is the youngest of the spirits, and each of the others are from a different period of Chinese history and only a few had even been to the US in their lives.”

Maria is a bonafide space adventurer and she is headed to the planet Wiis to gather intelligence. She accompanies Whadgaf Jiris and her friend Sevi of Oin to rendezvous with a Rhadwiis man who risks his own life to help them. The space drama continues and the stakes are very high.
Further Ascension (Darker Maria Bk. 1): “All of Eakran’s work is sanctioned by the IP and was presumably used in their consideration for Earth’s inclusion into the Panel. He is not a fugitive for anything he did on Earth. They claim that he brought unsanctioned Earthlings from their homeworld and risked contamination of the IP headquarters, like Eakran would be so careless.”

Detective Young wants answers and he’s taking his concerns right to the heads of local law enforcement. And while Young makes his professional moves, Falon makes some dangerous night moves as they both work to unravel the same mystery.
Old Man Young and the Con Man’s Daughter: “We have something serious on our hands, ladies and gentlemen, and I’ve been able to corroborate similar instances in other states. These people didn’t die of natural causes, and they’re not drug overdoses, or not an overdose on any drug that we’ve scheduled. Nothing we know about causes these changes in people. It seems to have started in North Carolina back in 2017, publicly anyway. There’s reason to think that the incident in 2017 was the result of years, if not decades of work.”

The Rhasdwiis are a strong civilization and they have successfully defended their planet from hostile attack on many occasions. Their military prowess is well known by IP member cultures, and they help to enforce IP law in the universe. Riswin Hojar is back and she has advanced quite a bit in her professional ambitions since we last saw her. Now, she is a Volunteer Officer with IP Law Enforcement and she shadows the most well known political figure in the known universe, First Captain Pen Nuren.
The Women of Rhasdwiis: “Currently, the law enforcement unit of the Interstellar Panel is coordinated by the Rhasdwiis Panel Representative. The Rhasdwiis have a most impressive military, known as the Wiis Defense Ministry, with millions of highly trained soldiers, and a few top commanders of the Ministry volunteer their efforts to the IP as a show of their support for the stated goals of the organization to establish order amongst civilized beings of the universe. Pen Nuren is the leader of the Ministry and she serves as the Representative from Wiis to the Interstellar Panel.”

Yuri James is back and there’s no delicate way to say it; that boy ain’t right. Yuri is being his worst self in the absence of Eakran, who apparently was some sort of check on his worst impulses. What’s his connection to the CZS? Nothing good, I can tell you that with confidence.
Made in America (Series 2): “The COHH was only able to deduce that the man Darker was the former head of this east coast organization before his death because of the amount of time that he spent with Eakran which gave him access to the mysterious drugs that Eakran was known to manufacture. Eakran used Darker as his proxy in the drug world, and when Darker was killed, he took another, a much younger man named Yuri James.”
