On board the new earth colony expedition space ship the U.S.S Montgomery all of the adults are suddenly killed when New Earth separatist attack the colony ship.

Valarie must learn to become a mother to these children as they trek across deep space and into unknown dangers. Nerd Escape hosts Jublar and Cami guide you through this epic deep space tale, and how it made them sentimental towards an A.I. system and what is their take on the concept of imposing your will and destruction for blind freedom as the separatist did in Sentient.
