The story revolves around Charley Huyck, a young boy with a penchant for curiosity who, through a series of fortuitous events, discovers an incredible power that threatens the very existence of Earth. As he matures into a brilliant scientist, Huyck finds himself in a race against time to save humanity from a catastrophic force that he inadvertently unleashed.  The opening of this tale sets a dramatic backdrop, beginning with a mysterious and silent apparatus of immense power, conceived from Huyck's foundational experiments with a burning glass as a child.
