Four outcasts roam the fringes of an untamed galaxy, taking on unusual jobs that challenge their unique abilities. We meet Stein, Sulesh and Denarii in the middle of attempting a jailbreak to free Persio, the smartest human alive, from the Burj, a mysterious tower located in the courtyard of a heavily fortified clifftop palace, in a futuristic sci-fi vision of 3125 Morocco.
