Three hundred years into the journey, the ship just changed course on its own.
You were born on the Long Patience, like your parents and theirs — nine thousand people crossing the dark
toward a world no one alive will ever see. This week, the Council names you its youngest apprentice in history.
The same night, the stars in the great window shift. Navigation reports a course change nobody ordered. Stewards
start whispering, old secrets stir in sealed archives, and you can read a forbidden script no one knows you learned.
Choose who to trust — and what nine thousand people deserve to know.
