Qiretan

A frontier vessel, an impossible drive, and a crew that slowly becomes a family.

“The Qiretan shall never belong to one person. She belongs to those who serve aboard her and accept the responsibility of carrying her forward.” — Captain Phineas

The Qiretan is an independently operated frontier ship that takes the work that keeps her flying: cargo, passengers, courier runs, escorts, surveys, exploration, and the occasional unusual contract. Captain Phineas is preparing to retire, and the story begins as he quietly tests the people who may inherit both the ship and the responsibility of carrying her forward.
