Plot[]
It is the age of the airship.
At the end of the 19th century, in a place much like our own, the bold and courageous loaded their dreams upon these flying machines and ventured out into the skies above.
One such adventurer was known around the world for his audacity and daring. The legendary Gilbert Brown was the most famous explorer in all of England. However, tempting fate one too many times, he crossed paths with a mysterious organization known as the Cabal and was never seen again.
Years later Eddie, Gilbert's son, boards the one thing his father left behind: his airship, the Maverick.
Leaving the only place he's ever known, Eddie departs London in search of his missing father and embarks on an adventure of his own...
