As a result of an accident, the generation ship 'Jacob's Ladder' settled into orbit around a dying star. Over 500 years, fragments of the ship's controlling artificial intelligence acquired the status of archons, angels, elementals, and mythical beings from a... lost Earth. The descendants of the Captain, 'elevated' by implanted symbionts, have gained superhuman powers and now fight for power, residing in different parts of the ship, which has become a whole world for them. In their quarrels, people have forgotten that an inevitable disaster awaits them, but the angels remember everything, keeping the memory of the old crew members in their libraries. The time has come to unite the separate parts, and the angels are searching for a new Captain to weigh anchor. Perseval and Rian are united by a secret birth. They must trust the angels to save their world, confined within the metallic skin of a cosmic giant.
