Lady Katarina Steele lives an idyllic life on Ilysium, the capitol world of the Empire, home to the greatest noble houses of the Imperial coalition. Ilysium is rich and decadent, attended to by servants and slaves, as well as the elite bodyguards of the nobility.
All of that changes quite suddenly, when Lord Severus Steele, Katarina's father, is bested in a duel to the death with Lord Oberon Flint. Proving himself to be a coward, he agreed to Lord Flint's conditions for quarter: in exchange for Severus' life, Oberon would take Lady Madeline Steele - Katarina's mother.
And so it came to pass, and it was only some time after Lord Oberon departed with the Lady Madeline that it was discovered that he was no lord at all, but the pirate king Uriah Flint in disguise! Horrified that her mother had been taken captive by none other than a bloodthirsty, murderous sky-dog, Katarina fled her home world in search of her mother. She traveled to Haven, the most prominent planet of the Free World, in search of a sky ship crew that would be willing to fly against Uriah Flint himself.
Haven is where she met you, the captain of a capable sky ship, and a sky pirate in your own rights. Will you take on her quest, searching the sky sea and the planets beyond the Empire in search of Katarina's mother? That is up to you to decide.
