As the heir to the prosperous Valentine household and son of the famous ambassador Gwen Valentine, Edward's prospects looked bright. People thought he would live out his life comfortably and bask in the wealth of his family's vast fortune, and in the fame of owning the company that gave so much to the independence war effort. However, for reasons yet to be elucidated, he left all that behind to become a Star Trader. With the level of sheer freedom afforded to citizens of the Crescent Empire compared to the rules of his household, he's in for a bit of a culture shock.

Sofie has a mysterious past with some associating her with rebel forces or the royal family. However, all suspicions have never been confirmed by Sofie herself. She's a soft spoken girl with a dangerous edge yet she looks innocent and sweet. People have never stuck by her side for long, always feeling that misfortune would strike if they got too close. She's a risky gamble but someone out there, she is sure, is willing to go all in.

Fenix Valentine is the CEO of one of the largest industries on the planet, and married to its owner. Many years ago, he worked as a contracted assassin for the government. Together with Gwen Valentine, the Ambassador for the nascent Crescent Empire, they brought down countless Imperialist spies and crime syndicates with their combined skills. They were an unstoppable power-couple. When the Revolution ended, Gwen asked Fenix to marry him (yes, you read that right), and they settled down in an ordinary-looking house in the city.

As a former assassin, Fenix knows both how to swagger and how to lay low, and it shows in his poise. He holds his head high, yet hides everything else under his long brown coat. His eyes seem cold and stern at first, but there is a warmth in them, their hard gaze softened by a deep love for his family. While smiles didn't used to come easily for him, today, there is rarely a moment when the deep rumble of mirth cannot be heard in his belly.

He'd long dreamt of creating a world where people could live free and happy, unbound by the chains of fear or despair. He and his wife fought desperately, with every fiber of their being, to make that world a reality.

They succeeded.

It is now Ed's and Sofie's turn to take that dream and spread it where such dreams are little more than whispers on the wind.
