After bouncing between threats to their lives for months as the post-apocalyptic world spirals constantly towards its true end, Mark and Horan have finally found a bit of calm after being taken in by their friends in the Aztec Domain, thanks to a good word put in from Quet and Omet. Following months of quiet, the Aztec Domain and their various guests are pulled back into crisis when an estranged Waia arrives on their doorstep, a herald of an oncoming army hellbent on eradicating any Primus that they can get their hands on. The values of old are questioned as Omet is forced to confront their new position of authority, and the question of who to hold responsible for a domino chain of crisis after crisis threatens to rip the shaky alliance of immortals and friends apart.(This work is the third part in a series, you can find the previous installment here, or the first installment here.)
