Eichard, an organic farmer from Repreter, has one last haul of horch to sell at the Tri-Star System Farmer's Market. His retirement plan includes the installation of NanoDream Electronic's shipbrain Electra Five-Seven-Niner, the world's first of its kind. When he is boarded by pirates in the middle of the Lawless Zone, the memory of his dead daughter haunts him, and the pirates get more than they'd bargained for.
