Summary
"Oh," Simon thought - and now he knew for certain that he was dying, because there were stars in the sky.
Millions of them. More than he could count, stretching across the sky in thick bands; lush swirls of white and blue and purple and green. They were so bright. They were so beautiful. And they had been waiting here for him all this time.
That was nice.-
Several years after arriving on Erid, Ryland Grace and Rocky were supposed to be done saving the world(s). But the moment they head back out into space, the universe keeps dropping the most irresistible mysteries into their laps: most recently, a man who claims to have crawled from an ocean of blood.
Simon had been prepared to die, he really had - but somehow, he's found himself in the hands of what may be the last beings in the world who aren't willing to let him. But it can never be so simple; his past, his world, and whatever he brought with him into this new one, will not let him go so easily.
