   Summary

   When Ryland Grace hears the Eridians have found another human being, barely alive and stranded on a barren moon, he doesn’t know what to think. The stranger’s chances of survival are slim, but Grace has worked too hard, done too much to leave this man’s fate up to the universe and be okay with it. He’ll just haul him back to Erid, treat his wounds and let the first human he’s seen in years be on his merry way. It’ll be easy and straightforward.

   Simon shows him that it will not be easy and straightforward.
