In a make-shift life raft, Sally and Ian must find their way home. When they do, their fortunes change for the better. Now Sally must decide whether or not to take an even greater challenge.

Sally and Ian found what they are looking for, but now they are unsure they can get back. Their computer is ailing while trying to determine where they are, but to make matters worse, a booby trap cripples them and forces them to abandon ship.

Sally and Ian have been approaching the kelthy region for days and are seeing nothing new. Both Sally and Ian are now expecting to face charges for a fool's errand. But then Sally gets a mysterious visit from Viaud uttering a strange and incomplete warning.

Sally and Ian plan their mission to the Kelthy region while first trying to explain it to Ian's wife Angela. Jackie continues to support the mission with her art, promising them an unseen guide. The final party to be notified is Anderson, Ian's boss, who is dubious about Ian's sanity.

In this installment even Sally is surprised at LaValley's negative reaction the their discovery. Ian's crew is sequestered and Sally is locked in the infirmary. But Ian is more resourceful than LaValley thinks. Now they must decide whether or not to risk their lives to stake their claim.
