With each new encounter the intrepid dreamers learn more about their abilities and seek out more of their kind. But the galaxy is a dangerous place.

Even the pirates from whom they took the starship are in hot pursuit.But before the young adventurers is the possibility of glory. Of completion. Of dreams. Of human kind's shared destiny.
