The Barquentine Pilgrim is a search and rescue starship designed to protect those who encounter hostile magic in space. Its crew consists of people with unusual abilities. While patrolling in a given area, the barquentine receives a standard distress signal and soon takes on board a rescue boat with a single passenger in a coma. However, the identity of the bot and the condition of the victim himself raise too many questions to which it is difficult to find a logical answer. Moreover, on the very first night, the rescued stranger unexpectedly comes to his senses and tries to kill the first mate of the Barquentine. While understanding this strange incident, the heroes learn about a mysterious knightly order that engages in piracy in space.
