Eking out a living among the wreckage and debris of ships, stations and abandoned outposts

In the vast, shadowed corners of space, the crew of Derelicts Scavenging and Salvage Co. makes their living among the wreckage of forgotten worlds—recovering abandoned ships, ancient relics, and remnants of battles long past. Their work is as dangerous as it is vital, navigating treacherous debris fields, derelict vessels, and unstable relics, all while seeking to uncover valuable artifacts—and sometimes secrets—hidden beneath layers of rust and darkness.

But their routine salvage missions are about to lead them into something far greater than mere treasure-hunting. As they explore the remnants of lost civilizations and encounter mysterious signals from the depths of space, they find themselves caught in a larger, unfolding story—one that hints at ancient cosmic forces stirring beneath the universe’s fragile surface. These forces are awakening from their long slumber, and the crew’s discoveries could hold the key to understanding the true nature of the universe’s past—and its uncertain future.

Amidst the chaos of debris and the silence of the void, they confront questions of destiny, trust, and survival. Their journey takes them beyond the familiar stars into uncharted territories where the line between chaos and order blurs, and the shadows behind the curtain of night deepen. As they chase whispers of the past and glimpses of a dawning future, they must decide what they are willing to risk—and what they might ultimately unleash.
