A job that seems too easy for a former pirate named Griff is not what it seems when his childhood sweetheart arrives and he begins to find out all of the complications that they didn't tell him about when he is told to install lighthouses along a dangerous passage through a dark nebula. Then he learns that a pirate ship captained by an old friend will also be in the area, and that there are creatures hidden in the nebula that can easily destroy his ship.
Now Griff must help his friend rebuild his pirate ship while dealing with all of the setbacks they didn't tell him about when he took this job.
