After a horrible accident takes his wife, Captain Desmond Jones decides that it’s time to throw in the towel. Just as he’s about to tender his resignation, his crew steps in and is able to convince him to make one last run. Together they journey to a strange little planet shrouded in mystery and promise. It’s a job that, by means he never could have imagined possible, will change Desmond’s life forever.

Faster-than-light travel has finally allowed humanity to spread beyond its lonely corner of the Milky Way. In the depths of space, these explorers found millions of star systems, strange planets, and exotic alien races. Centuries later, they form the Known Worlds, a vital region of trade and technology where empires grow and business thrives.

It is an unparalleled age. Cutting-edge science has opened limitless frontiers of space and consciousness, and has even begun to hint at the mysteries of the universe itself. But to find them, one must travel beyond the familiar, to the last parsecs of reality. This anthology, created by Pinnacle Entertainment Group, includes the following stories:
