In a world without a future, each moment is the end of the world.
After a near miss of an extinction level asteroid, Caetov L9N has been plunged toward a new ice age that would see all forms of life on the planet annihilated. Facing the untimely halt of the negotiations with the Dalacari over access to the Pathstone Project, the crew of the USS Astraea receive a distress call outlining the plight the Caetovan's are facing, their plea for assistance.
Upon arrival in the Caetov system, the crew of the USS Astraea discover that, although they have the technology, the Caetovan's have not actually achieved warp capability, which means that the prime directive is to apply. The crew of the USS Astraea are to stand back and watch the Caetovans as everything they have ever cared about, everything they have worked for... has all been preparation for a future that will no longer exist.
Violation of The Prime Directive could see the crew of the USS Astraea facing heavy consequences, but what will their inaction cost?
The crew of the USS Astraea find themselves in a moral and ethical quandary as they face what is likely their toughest mission yet.
