However, the surprising arrival of another shuttle makes her rethink everything.

As they are gathering in the meeting hall with everyone else now in the settlement, two of their number are missing.

It's time for the Denynso to fight back.

After an attack by the Klimnu, Eden's knocking on death's door. Pyra rushes her to the Denynso healer, and it turns out he has to do more than heal her. He has to bring her back to life. It's the first in Denynso history, and no one knows what to expect or how things will go for Eden. A side effect of the healer's gift is a link bonding them together forever. Pyra is struggling to deal with his mate's attachment to Ciyrs and doesn't know what to do. The more he fights it the more the wall between him and Eden grows....
