Unfortunately for Lan, his cryogenically induced deep space dreams are filled with visions of Nicola, his former love, playing in his head like a broken record. ![]() ![]() The only survivor of a devastating attack on the ship is Lan, a young man who joined the military to get away from a lost love.

In deep space, a war is being waged between the Terrain Alliance and one of their subjugated colonies, Neotra.
