A new transport pod holding 200 more people has landed, and none of the new arrivals know what to expect.
The pod holds an unexpected surprise for him personally: Rose's brother, who brings with him his own issues. Conflicts also rage between Murdock and Phylicia Cunningham, a distaff cousin to James Whittier, who has her own lust for power.
Counseling common sense and self-reliance, Murdock begins training the arrivals in survival. But even with his knowledge of Oomah, they face overwhelmingly difficult odds in their quest for survival on the strange planet they now call home.
