On a far-distant planet known as Zada, the animals of Earth have found a safe haven, free to continue their evolution without interference. Until now.
For Renard, a young fox, life has not been easy. Born the runt of his litter, he was the least likely to survive to adulthood, much less become a hero of his people. He was separated from his family by a freak accident: left cold, alone, and near death. He might have died that day, should have died, but a stroke of luck saved him. Renard was found, and adopted, by Yoshi: an aged raccoon-dog who could give the young fox the tools he needed to survive. Yoshi was a trained master in the art of self-defense, and looking for a promising pupil...
Armed with this knowledge, Renard set out on a journey, hoping to discover his purpose, and to test his skills. Along the way, he met many fantastic creatures and forged lifelong friendships.
Renard and his friends would later stumble upon a message, one that would change their lives. They learned that an invading force had set its sights on Zada: a race of conquerors known as the Verans. Zada, with its abundant natural resources, was their next target.
The young Zadans faced a truly Herculean task: unite their people and drive off the invasion. Failure would mean total annihilation: the extinction of their people and the enslavement of their home. They knew they could not fail.
