Toria was now Captain of the Nightshade, she had been working undercover for years; wondering how much longer she could keep this up, before she lost herself this other person that she's created, be discovered by the Malarias Fleet or captured by the Magic's. There were days that made her wonder how she hadn't been caught yet, days that made her wonder if she should just walk away and let someone else carry the burden; but then there was always that doubt wondering if she had done enough, if she was being selfish for wanting to live away from all of this.

Her new first officer, Ewan Titus wasn't making this any easier on her; in fact he was making things so much more difficult for the both of them. How was she supposed to keep herself on the right track, when she had to make sure that he didn't slip off of his own?
