Animated. A captain who leads his military force against rat-like aliens believes he is on the verge of being promoted by his own kind, only to be captured by the rat-like aliens and forced to work alongside them for survival.
After an attack, a proud spaceship captain smarting from a failed promotion is taken prisoner by a rival race of aliens, but gets to know his enemies and their motives as they struggle to get off the tiny island where they’ve crash-landed.
In a space-like universe called "skpace," a horse-like alien captain of a ship finds himself captured by his rat alien enemy before crashing on a treacherous planet, where the adversaries will have to work together to escape various threats, including an attack by the captain's own people.

They inform him that they’re pirating resources from the energy cores of various enemy ships. Meanwhile, Lt. Jensen is busy firing canons at the Voskum raider, until it’s sent careening and crashes on a beach on Planet Ayqua.

A giant nose appears and swallows Philomeil. Gramarat manages to save him. Later, Gramarat reveals that, years ago, a planet-sized ball of water engulfed the Voskplace Colony that the rats...
