With their vast cargo holds and a crew that could fill a city, the Greatships are the lifeblood of human-occupied space, transporting an unimaginable volume - and value - of goods from City, the greatest human orbital, all the way to Tradepoint at the other, to trade for xenoglas with an unknowable alien species. It has always been Marca Nbaro's dream to achieve the near-impossible: escape her upbringing and venture into space.

Marca Nbaro had always dreamed of serving aboard the Greatships, with their vast cargo holds and a crew that could fill a city. They are the lifeblood of human-occupied space, transporting an unimaginable volume - and value - of goods from City, the greatest human orbital, all the way to Tradepoint at the other, to trade for xenoglas with an unknowable alien species. And now, out in the darkness of space, something is targeting them.

Following the events of Artifact Space, the galaxy continues to change and expand. Frontiers are challenged and what was once a safe space becomes contested, hostile, and unpredictable. From normal people caught up in the unstoppable machinations of politics and war, to spies faced with making the ultimate sacrifice for their nations, these stories follow the DHC as it faces a challenge to everything it holds dear - human rights, fairness and equality. When a rogue system questions their values and power, how can they stay true to their beliefs and protect their citizens?

Die Galaxis ist besiedelt. Großschiffe bringen Passagiere und Fracht von einem Sternsystem zum anderen, und ihre Handelsrouten sind die Adern der menschlichen Zivilisation. All das wäre jedoch nicht möglich ohne den kostbarsten Rohstoff von allen: Xenoglas. Es ist nur auf City erhältlich, einer riesigen Orbitalstation – und genau dorthin ist Marca Nbaro unterwegs. Dass sie allerdings gar keine Offiziersanwärterin ist, sondern auf der Flucht vor ihrer Vergangenheit, das darf niemand wissen.
