The Invaders came from the sky, unleashing their death rays on the Earth. From Mars some said, or beyond. Cities fell before them, one after the other. A Great Alliance was formed between countries who had played at war against each other in the time before. Queen Victoria brought together a convocation of scientists, among them the Savant, Tesla. The knowledge of city shields and ways to fight against the foe went out to everyone who would listen, in all corners of the world. Mad science and mystery worked hand in hand with human courage. Thirty years later, in the 1890’s, the world has changed beyond recognition. The Invaders have been driven off, some say all killed, but is that story just a way to sleep at night? Those who are left covet the power they had before the Reconstruction. Others embrace this new world and the freedom it brings after the War. The Airship Wind Dancer is led by Captain William Hunting Owl, a tribesman from the Americas. Together with his first officer, a former British Air captain, and a Hindu Sorceress Assassin, he fights to keep his ship flying. The crew of the privateer comes from every Free Port still standing. They seek to make a living in a world that has few rules except for the Articles that guide life on the ship. Their shipmates are their family; all have lost something they held dear, and few speak of it. William Hunting Owl and Lawrence Rogers seek to discover who killed Will’s father. They are willing to do whatever it takes to find their answers.
