It began when they were in the army. It was nearly lost on a battlefield. Now it soars through the heavens. Ryan and Donna Yavone's dream of owning their own business has waited long enough, and now it is coming true. After years of work and the trust of a young businesswoman, their private airship Pillar of Faith is taking to the skies. Money to fix the ship is no longer a problem, but finding shipping contracts is a challenge neither husband or wife has ever tackled before. Not to mention, the ship has no crew, little equipment, and if Donna has to take one more cold shower under a rain barrel she is going to scream. Thankfully their business partner, Eric Hood, is more than capable of finding work and an eccentric professor with a bad habit is ready to step up and offer the ship its first charter.

"Take a group of college students to a dig site; what could go wrong?"

If the Yavone's are lucky, all they will have to do is keep the ship in the air and keep their passengers fed. Unfortunately for them, even in the air ancient dangers wait to turn a peaceful ship into a flying tomb. Do Ryan and Donna have what it takes to make the sky their new home, or will their first voyage end in a pile of broken wood and shattered dreams?
