NOTES

In a galaxy where fabricators are common, where death is a myth, and in which countless space-faring aliens have met and joined together only the lucky ones survive. With technology capable of solving everything, of fighting off anything, of granting everyone's wishes, what is there left to do but explore the universe?Defend it from itself, and its inhabitants.Anastasia's father dies, and her strange uncle comes pick her up the next morning. He is Captain Francis Drake, of the Sinful Way, leader of a merry crew of aliens who travel the far reaches of space and risk their lives, their limbs, and their free order to be the garbage collectors the universe needs.When technological singularities are so common they don't even make the news, and all civilizations are technologically advanced, what one defines as 'Garbage' radically shifts into dangerous territory. Still, it's not like Anastasia's worried too much. She can always go back home when she's tired of seeing the universe, no?
