The Guardians have curbed the destructive tendencies of humanity since the beginning: there’s never been a hole in the ozone layer and man has never split the atom. When the Guardians intervene to stop humanity's newest threat, firearms, Shinta is left with a choice: avenge her father, use firearms against the Guardians or forsake everything she has ever known and loved for the sake of humanity.
