The crew of Regilian intergalactic class freighter BlueStar are in for an unusual homeward journey. From a forty third century Earth to an altogether unexpected destination, they find themselves unwitting couriers of a mysterious, highly-sought after object. As their plight of unwilling fancy unfurls about them, a never before realized strand of possibility presents itself in the face of otherwise long accepted complacency. A suggestion, voiced from the periphery, echoes across the void as Paylos Irridu'an and crew meander forth with a few, newly found and never before suspected, friends in tow.
