==Plot==
Several years after the Abyssal War and its aftermath, Scott Marcus follows the path of his father who ended the war, Shane Marcus, and endlessly working in an effort to maintain the peace his father had achieved for the world, while his brother, Trent Marcus, looks forward to his life back home on the Naval Base as he prepares to start his high school life and first military career there after spending three years studying abroad. However, he is quickly shocked as he meets the Highwaymen Fleet, a group full of buff men who spend more time drinking, partying, and stripping naked than actually sortie into battle and expeditions. Despite his attempts to distance himself from the group, Trent gets quickly swept up in their antics.
The new surreal yet thrilling slice-of-life adventure begins as the siblings discover the wonders beyond the horizon along the way.
