"A brilliant young engineer. His loyal dog. A ship full of secrets."
After a fusion experiment kills his entire team, young engineer Gavriel Shelton wakes from two years in stasis to discover his family thinks he's dead. Reassigned to the battered warship "Harsh Mistress", he joins a crew of misfits searching for his missing father. What begins as a simple rescue turns deadly. With his loyal genetically enhanced dog Hank, Gabe forges this ragtag crew into a found family—one that must fight like hell to survive.

"What was hidden cannot stay hidden. What was entangled cannot be severed."
The crew survived what brought them together. Now they have to survive each other. Old loyalties, new obligations, and truths buried long before the Harsh Mistress came together begin pulling them in different directions. Some bonds strengthen under tension. Others break.

"All things collapse toward a single point. All choices end here. There is no escaping the singularity — or its price."
Every path eventually reaches a point of no return. For the crew of the Harsh Mistress, the choices that brought them together now demand their final consequences. What they choose to hold onto — and what they are willing to let go — will determine how their story ends.

The SCN maintains security across known space through a fleet of warships and support vessels. Its crews conduct deep-space patrols, protect civilian shipping and trade routes, suppress piracy, respond to emergencies, and intervene when disputes between member worlds threaten the peace.

Where the Navy patrols the void, the SCM operates on the ground and in the breach. Marine units provide expeditionary security, planetary response, shipboard defense, and boarding capability wherever Concordium personnel and citizens require protection.
