Can there be honour amongst thieves?
Vayla, an iron-willed and arrogant Maiden, fights for the cause of banishing greed and slavery on the Titan Sea. When she boarded the Voyager she vowed never again to step foot on land and she intends to honour this until the day she dies. That is, until she meets Beckett Dryden, a fallen Pirate Lord with a taste for vengeance and a moral compass so broken it's impossible to know where his loyalties lie. After Beckett betrays her and takes her prisoner on his ship, Vayla agrees to work with him to steal the five actoria rings of power in exchange for her freedom.
To aid their quest, Beckett employs a crew of untrustworthy thieves which includes Yuan, a sneaky Tracer who has the ability to locate the rings, Celina, a secret princess who wants to steal the rings for her Kingdom, and Jessabelle, a lonely siren who wishes to honour a debt to Beckett. Driven by their conflicting motives, the thieves work together to plot and execute three heists to steal the rings. Of course, the journey won't be smooth sailing. Nobody can be trusted when lies, betrayal and dishonesty are the crew's second nature.
When each player in their deadly game of truth and lies is fighting for a different cause, who will come out on top and who will be left in chains and ruin?

A band of outcasts forms at her side, bound by vengeance and hope. By day, they wear the king's colors. By night, they become shadows on the sea.
