It sucks to be left behind. At first, anger and depression at being abandoned drags Dara into a boring routine within the domes of Moon City. However, with her cybernetic abilities, she finds a way to alter her own fate. Now in possession of her own ship, the Delphine, Dara traverses the stars with a fresh band of misfits. She discovers the plots of a renegade laboratory lurking beneath some tragic circumstances, and only she knows the whole truth. Rogue agents, ever-present pirates, an annoying whisper, and a mission that tests the bonds of friendship and crew loyalty overtake Dara as she struggles to maintain control over her own unique capabilities.
