Voyage of the Chimera

Just a few hours out of port, the Chimera encounters a blacklisted freighter, offering Marcus and his crew their first chance at prize money.

Despite his initial success, Marcus DeVol remains sullen. Caught between his Exec and the advisor sent along with them by his father, Marcus prepares to open his orders, which will provide specifics for his mission.

The Chimera's crew has a very different reaction to their prize, and Marcus briefs his officers on the true nature their mission.

Based on an intercepted communication, Marcus has decided to head out-system, into the empty blackness of space, to areas where no one travels unless they are trying to hide.

The crew of Chimera begins to doubt their mission, none more so than Marcus himself, as they journey fruitlessly, further and further into an unending empty void.

Marcus' desperate search has at last brought about a tangible result... but a surprise may await them in the blackness.
