A thousand years in the future, humanity has colonized worlds in nearly 100 galaxies, thanks to Quantum Vibremonic technologies developed five centuries earlier. Other new technologies have created various off-shoots of humanity and extended life expectancies five-fold. The story begins with how a mad scientist and his plucky assistant, along with their robot friend, brought humanity to the stars, and continues with the adventures of some unique people in fantastic places.

Transcript For Strip 1865
Panel 1Cut to a lounge where Diana and Alyss are seated next to each other. As the Porcupine fusses over Diana's right arm, Alyss debriefs Diana as Areum looks on.
Caption: We moved to a more comfortable room and so while Monty fussed over my poor abused arm, I filled Alyss in on all that had happened.
Caption: It might have gone faster except for the way she peppered me with questions.
Panel 2
Alyss is looking a bit deflated. Diana's cast looks different. Areum is in the background.
Caption: Finally:
Diana: … So really, it's thanks to our trip to the Mechanic that I now have contacts in a place that could prove advantageous to us later.
Alyss: You … really have been through a lot. Especially your friend, Juan. I will of course cover his medical expenses in full.
Panel 3
Diana looks appreciative; the Panda is walking up holding a tray with a snack and drinks.
Diana: That's … good to know. He should be transferred to a different hospital, though.
Alyss: Yeah. I've trusted Smith & Holder for literally centuries.
Alyss: But they've been compromised somehow, and until we get to the bottom of this ...
Panel 4
Looking past Areum at far left into medium shot of Diana and Alyss, with the Panda walking up holding a tray with a snack and drinks.
Alyss: Oh! But I shouldn't assume 'we,' should I?
Alyss: I wouldn't blame you for bailing out at this point. Things will get even rougher.
Diana: I'm angry enough with these bastards that I'm not afraid of them anymore.
