It is a grim time. With dark whispers beyond the wall, five kings war in the south, and the last dragon rising in the east. Few could spare a moment to look toward the sky as a new star fell to the land. Maesters tear through their archives searching for answers and Lords find new troubles at their door. For many, it is an omen both good and ill a sign of great change in the world on the verge of a great winter. High above the crew of the Union Aerospace Administration vessel UAS Thorfinn Karlsefni celebrated the discovery of an exciting new world on the edge of Frontier Space. But their celebration is cut short when disaster falls upon their vessel. Stranding them in an alien world of fire and ice where death lurks in every corner.
