Cargo

Erik Mal made a mistake. Not just any mistake, though. What started as a well-meaning act threatens not only his career as a starship Captain, but it also happens to tip the delicate power balance of the Galaxy. As punishment, he is stripped of his command and reassigned as Captain of the Hellbender, a cargo ship on a dangerous mission through enemy territory to attempt to restore order. It is not an easy task, however.
As he digs further into the mystery of what his ship is carrying and why, things begin to go unexplainably awry.
As his fears of the worst become confirmed and his beliefs are shaken, he decides a bit of chaos might be in the best interest of the Galaxy.
