In the 11th millennium, the oppressed people of the Galactic Empire await the coming of a saviour to free them from the battles and intrigues of the ruling houses, which surround the galaxy's most valuable resource: "the spice". The spice not only bestows special mental abilities on those who consume it, but also enables inter-galactic travel. He who rules the spice, rules the galaxy. Now it is up to one man to convince the underground movement that he is the chosen one who can lead them to freedom.
