Leaf on the Wind
Timeline: Leaf On The Wind begins four years after the end of the Unification War.
Trigger Event: During one of the last battles of the Unification War, the crew procured the Liúlàng Zhě (Wanderer) in a desperate bid to escape certain annihilation, appropriating the near obsolete mining vessel from an abandoned salvage yard just ahead of advancing Alliance forces. Old as she was and slated for scrap, the stout little ship proved surprisingly tough and agile, dodging or shrugging off potential hazards as they fled the system.
Opening Scene: Over the past four years, the battered old Mayfly has undergone a number of interesting modifications and upgrades both inside and out, not all of them entirely legal like, and the mismatched group that fled the Alliance together have made some small name for themselves in the 'Verse as a capable crew that gets jobs done.
The crew of the Wanderer is currently docked for resupply and routine maintenance on Deadwood, seventh planet in the Blue system. They're supposed to be meeting a guy about a job.
