Synopsis

Here is an epic set in a far distant universe--a saga of faraway planets and of races strange and more fantastic than an ever seen on our world. Yet their struggles are universal: for justice, for freedom, for peace. "Lucasfilm's Alien Chronicles" is a sweeping adventure that will transport you to another time, and to another place, where a legend is about to be born. The ruler of the reptilian Viis has purchased a new pet for his daughter. But the animal, named Ampris, has a more important destiny.
