When the era of the conquest of the stars was just beginning, Abigail Gentian divided herself into a thousand male and female clones and called them shutterings. For six million years, shuttering has acquired the highest technologies, the fastest ships, the most powerful weapons. With the help of relativistic speeds and cryosna, these people learned to manipulate time, and compared to the rest of humanity they are now immortal – they are compared with worms that crawled through the pages of history.
For young civilizations, they are like the gods – they can save the star from the explosion, move the planet, revive the economy of the whole world.
But recently, a certain force has appeared in the universe, striving to destroy the offspring of Gentian. To repulse this merciless enemy, shuttering must first solve his secret.
