Late into the twenty-fourth century, Earth, now known as Terra, has finally managed to begin interstellar travel across the galaxy. The Atlas, the first ship from Terra to accomplish this feat, did not have an easy start, though. These are the records of its maiden voyage, and the events that almost stopped it from happening at all. The galaxy is a mysterious place filled with worlds and people that were once considered only myth to those from Terra. This tale, and those that follow, chronicle what happens when science meets magic, and how time and technology are relative at best. In Tales from the Atlas: Maiden Voyage, medieval and postmodern technology clash, and friends, or enemies, can come from anywhere.
