Seeklight

Seeklight is the story of a quest for identity by Daenek, scion of an assassinated thane, or clan leader. The action occurs during some future time on an Earth-like “seed planet,” to which human genetic material, or seed, was transported while shepherded and nurtured by protective robots called priests. The priests’ job was to protect the genetic material until the ships landed on a planet suitable for human life, at which time they initiated the birth and reproduction of the human race, initially through cloning.
