More DescriptionThe Caronian Conflict is the second of the Leap of Fate series, following Ron Allison and Cache Kuar into even more harrowing adventures against the Kreete Triad.This episode finds our two heroes separated due to conflicting time constraints, and each of them is forced to manage on their own to make contact with allies on the planet of Caron.Unlike Cache's instantaneous transportation through the Starflex, Ron begins his journey to his alter ego's homeworld through deep space in the advanced fighter spacecraft The Darlile. In that vast nothingness, he has to conquer new, split-second challenges to even reach the target planet alive. Once there, he must descend ominous and treacherous mountain peaks through horrific, ultrahigh-altitude weather, to reach the tropical confines of the Yetsole Valley. At last in a breathable environment, he sets out overland with hopes to make contact among a group of rebel fighters who are secretly trying to find a way to overthrow the Kreete's rule.Once planet-side, Ron has no way of communicating with Cache because of the Kreete's surveillance network that continuously scans the planet for unauthorized use of electronic equipment, so their reunion is decidedly less than guaranteed. That fact eats at his psyche and drives him forward with as much haste as possible.This is Ron's first attempt at covert infiltration and he has a difficult time blending in with the natives. He stumbles into a less than low profile, because of his inherent nature of defending the helpless, and crushes one enemy after the other while doggedly pursuing after Cache. His prowess in battle gains him much notoriety (which fills him with instant misgivings), but too, it gains him life-long friends as well...something he welcomes wholeheartedly.With his new friends beside him, they accomplish what was thought impossible and make great strides toward the building of an army to fight the Kreete, but with Cache still missing, Ron breaks away from them to find her on his own.At last on a fresh trail, Ron faces a small army who've captured his partner, and unleashes his full fury on those who dare keep them apart.Finally he reaches his goal, only to be left with his greatest test so far. The finale is a sharp, gut-wrenching scene that will blow your mind and leave you drooling for more!
