Chapter 1: Embers in the Void
Chapter 1: The Relic
The stars were cold tonight-cold enough to bite through Nova Caelus's patched-up flight suit as she huddled in the wreckage of an old mining freighter. Beyond the cracked viewport, the broken hull of the derelict ship loomed, half-swallowed by the asteroid field. A scavenger's paradise, if you were desperate enough to risk it. Nova was desperate.
