In a futuristic time, Bruno Redding, doctor aboard the "USS Encounter" awakens after 750 years in cryosleep to find himself the only survivor of a doomed voyage lost in the vast and lonely cosmos of deep space. Here he begins to notice strange presences aboard the lone and ancient vessel, one of good and one of evil. In a fit of impulse, Bruno rescues an alien visitor on his ship only to become embroiled in a chase conducted by slave merchants of a futuristic system of slavery in the Estaris Quadrant, a place his ship has drifted. Bruno finds himself hampered by a fiendish crew of Space Pirates led by the fiendish captain John Mars, who intend on selling Redding as an article from the past.
Bruno is then sent upon a self-imposed mission to outmaneuver his captors and rescue their other victims. This brings him into crossing paths with a kindred spirit named Pamela who is held captive in a moon-base ruled with an iron hand by a heartless dictator named David Eidon. It is through his travels with the alien creature and Pamela that Bruno finds himself as more than a match for the cruel system that wishes to destroy what good remains in the "world"- what Bruno perceives as home. Only in fighting for the humanity of others will Bruno uphold his own.
However, an even more formidable foe comes to threaten Bruno, this being his own demons manifested in that of a heartless, soulless creature fueled by Redding's own doubts and misgivings. Bruno must fight to uphold what remains good within him, and this he can only accomplish with Pamela and his alien companion. Alone Bruno will only fall victim as he has before. Only with the help of his friends can he combat the likes of Mars and Eidon, and save his soul from his personal demon along with the lives of countless others in the process.
