The war between the Terran Alliance Fleet and the Delnadian Empire wasn't going well, for either side. Battle lines had been drawn long before it ever started, and those lines hadn't changed much. Both sides of the rising conflict only had so many resources, so many ships, so many worlds, so many soldiers. All were running low.

But wars aren't only fought on the battlefield. There were more ways to battle than just ship against ship, soldier against soldier. The spies were everywhere, working for their chosen sides. They weren't only trading in secrets, though. They were trading in a resource far more important in the war. What that is, no one is sure of. Because in space, no one can hear you spy.
