Glass Fleet

Teetering on the sword’s edge between surrender and death, all seems lost for the revered icon of the People’s Army as Michel finds himself at the mercy of the Imperial Fleet of the Holy Empire. But with the sharp glint of glass against the stars, hope arrives in the visage of a sleek battleship, one of unsurpassed strength and capabilities – One bearing the crest of the Royal Family! Salvation, however, will be fleeting as their saviors turn out to be no better than pirates, even if of noble blood…

Cleo and his crew – and their unlikely passengers – have landed on the desolate planet of Orleans, populated by the scum of the universe. Still determined that their recent rescuer is destined to be the hero of the People’s Army (if somewhat reluctant), Michel is forced to face reality when his “hero” sells their ship! Faced with an infuriatingly enigmatic and rather selfish pirate rogue in place of a saint, Michel treks after Cleo into the mountains and challenges him to a duel…

Worlds collide in a musty tavern as Cleo crosses swords with a stranger, whom Michel calls out as none other than the self-proclaimed Holy Emperor, Vetti Sforza! Blades and bodies both lock into battle with a vengeance as their instincts lead them in a deadly dance. As Michel is forced to play at rescue this time, the duel which spilled blood on snowy streets is forced into the skies with the arrival of the Imperial Fleet. Two men, two souls, both driven by the same prophecy…

In the dark reaches of time and space, an age of oppression smothered the masses… The New Aristocracy, under the guise of creating an empire by and for the people, waged war against the Allied Nobility and crushed them beneath their mighty force. But this was not a victory in the name of the people, this was not the beginning of a new era of peace! One corrupt ruling class had been destroyed, but in its place another would emerge, more corrupt than before…

A second revolution stirs as the People’s Army rises up to begin their march toward freedom. Led by Michel Volban, a heroic rebel of stout heart, who waits valiantly at the end of a sword for a hero to release the weary. Alone, the dissenters hold little chance against the might of the Imperial Fleet…
