Captain Mackenzie Calhoun of the USS Excalibur-A and Captain Elizabeth Shelby of the USS Trident find themselves at the front lines of this conflict. They struggle to contain the escalating violence while confronting the unsettling reality that the Gateways themselves may pose an even greater threat to the wider frontier.
