Description: Noah is being marched across the alien landscape of the Red Desert, his unimpressed captor, Sundance, tossing the PH-Ts away. Suddenly they have company, Sundance's twin brother and Protector Ñ Sutch! In the Keep at the Thunderstone mine Tao watches the confrontation on his screen, as Jett arrives and takes Sundance prisoner using her net gun. Noah makes a run for it and arrives at the Sentinel Camp where he discovers a humiliated Sundance. Noah cannot leave him Ñ their dramatic escape and destruction of the Sentinel has added further fuel to Tao's anger. Meanwhile, the Nomads traveling the Deep Road are hoping to reach safety. Noah and Sundance join them but Noah discovers his PH-Ts are gone! He will never get them back, he will be trapped here in this hostile place. Looking around him in the tunnel, he sees something familiar Ñ he realizes this is the ruin of North Col. He has been wrong Ñ he is not in the past but in the future! What happened to everyone, to his family?
