![]() ![]() What does it mean, to hold faith in the dark? Should obedience come at the cost of action? And which is the greater service-to proselytise, or to help?

Decades after the war between the colonies and Earth Central Governance, the church in Rome is once more reaching out its hand to influence Earth’s children. In a future where humanity has colonised multiple star systems-and in which living, genetically engineered spaceships fly the dark alongside metal deadships-the nuns of the Catholic Order of St Rita find themselves faced with an unexpected choice: to change course and let their ship, the Our Lady of Impossible Constellations, find and mate with the ship on which she’s imprinted, or deny her biological needs as a matter of doctrine.īut the needs of the ship are not all that concern the sisters. ![]()
