Frozen in the ice, the vessel, demonstrably hijacked three years ago by the mysterious Corsairs, apparently hides valuable enemy technology and possibly even the bodies of the Corsairs themselves, who are waging an undeclared war on humans. The closest vessel that can examine the rare find is the UTSS Salamis. She is currently moored at the border station UTSS Shanghai, where she is undergoing general maintenance after the battle with the Corsairs. Although the repairs are far from complete, Salamis, with a crew temporarily supplemented by Chinese marines and an intelligence research team, ventures far beyond the borders of colonized space to secure the wreck of the corsair. However, the question remains, how did Fridtjof Nansen actually find himself on Marzanna-3? What forced him to land and what other threats lurk in the icy grip of the frigid planet?
