Survival is uncertain in the Abyss, the depths of the post-Earth space where savages lurk and pirates haunt- the ultimate test of mettle and man.
Remi was ripped from his family, taken captive from the ship, and sold into slavery when he was merely a boy. Now, he's the first mate on the Scorpion- an entity of sheer force and strength, cruising through the Abyss. Remi has a found family- a crew he considers brothers and a captain who's like a father.
Remi is surviving, but the principles of the pirate life start conflicting with his own- and although he is good at what he does, he starts thinking of abandoning the abhorrent conventions of piracy- and even leaving the trade altogether. Bound by loyalty, Remi does as he's ordered, growing evermore uncomfortable with the way of life he's been thrust into, reeling against the captain's ultimate word.
Exiled from his war-torn kingdom that produces the most coveted minerals in the Universe, the young prince Kepler yearns for the day he can reclaim his birthright and stand beside his father. But his kingdom is weak, with the major lords revolting, and so he's sent against his wishes to petition the mightiest Empire to intercede on their behalf.
Together with Edwin, his bodyguard, he's thrust into a world unknown, far away from his land, where he walks on a tightrope of political warfare, class rule, betrayals and hatred for his people. While Empress Centaria ponders her empire's involvement, Kep gets reports of his home being ravaged. He takes solace in the princess's company, but he must forsake all and everything for a slight opportunity to return home.
