Steampunk space opera? Damn right. The fight begins! The Armadas of the universe set sail for the next dimension! Who will succeed? M. Francisco Fabrigas -- scientist, explorer, "dreamer" (fool), and perhaps the greatest human of all ages (fool) -- with his shipful of slave children and mysterious stowaways? The Pope of the Universe and the dastardly Fleet of the Nine Churches? Her Majesty Queen Habitas X? (Glory Be To Her, Our Queen, For She Will Live Forever!) Or a sinister well-dressed mesmerist, who is telling you what to think even now? All we can promise is this -- 170,000 ships depart for the Interior, and not one of them, not a single one of them, will return.
