Star Rippers: The One Left Behind

After a dying world falls silent, Tu’Rok—the last Draconian commander—carries the future of his species across the stars.

Nine eggs. One chance at survival.

But not everything can go with him.

Left behind on Earth, a human child named Zan is forced to navigate loss, uncertainty, and a world that suddenly feels far too large. Still grieving the death of his father, Zan begins to experience something he cannot explain—visions, instincts, and a growing awareness that something inside him is changing.

And he is not the only one watching.

As unseen threats begin to close in and time runs out for the last of the Draconians, an impossible decision must be made:

Protect one life… or save an entire species.
