Summary
It's been a few years since Ryland Grace's well-earned retirement on Erid. He's saved one planet and given a second the tools to do the same for itself. Other than a bit of expected loneliness, he feels pretty good about the whole thing, all told.
And then one day, Erid reports an unexpected object in their system- a spacecraft. Grace, Rocky, and Adrian investigate, only to find a bizarre and impossible vessel, and inside, underneath the coating of gore, is a man on the verge of death.
Grace doesn't know what to feel about this wrench in his carefully maintained new life. Simon, who is mutated physically by his experiences, strange and aggressive and so, so scared. Their narratives don't align, and Grace can feel his new world falling apart around him just as soon as he's found it.
But this is bigger than both of them.
