From salvage comes a future. Alan and Tanara Dathan never dreamed their lives would turn toward command. Yet when a battered Prosian freighter hull and a mismatched shuttle fall into their hands, they seize the chance to carve out a home among the stars. Joined by Candy Prosek, a sharp-tongued engineer with a knack for impossible repairs, and Tanak Zim, a fisherman turned rigger, they christen their new vessel Wanderer - a ship built not for glory, but for survival and family. Their first contract carries them to the Tonan borderlands, where refugees struggle in the shadow of war. But aid is never simple. Raiders close in, hardliners call them traitors, and Wanderer's untested systems creak under the weight of fire. To succeed, the crew must learn to trust each other - and to accept that every ship earns her story the hard way: with scars. In a galaxy scarred by conflict, Wanderer hums into the stars - fragile, alive, and free.
