A temporal anomaly propelled humans from the 21st century into the future. Those humans are treated unfairly and labeled as 21 Cents by the Intersystem Conglomerate, an alliance of human colonies brought together by economics. No one knows how the 21 Cents got there, and no one seems to be interested in figuring out the truth while there is a war going on.

Caused by a series of unfair circumstances, Jarod Garren is given a chance to build a ship as part of a competition. Now Captain Garren successfully constructed a freighter out of scrap metal and junk. He is an accomplished engineer but The Intersystem Conglomerate will not give the 21 Cent a chance.

Despite the prejudices against him, Captain Garren manages to assemble a crew of unique friends and attains a contract to serve an Uthorogud General to deliver supplies for the war effort. The war gives them a chance to dispel the lies about him and his 21 Cent peers, but the Conglomerate will not make it easy.

But a mystery unfolds that reveals the secrets to how the 21 Cents had arrived in the 26th century. There are players set against them, trying to undermine the progress of Dark Wine and her crew.

Take a spin on Dark Wine, a simple freighter with incredible engineering talents. And follow the wacky and gifted crew of misfits, thieves, detectives, doctors, losers and assassins.
