And almost too late, the DCI realise their mistake. To quell growing descent from the populace, the Federation must perpetuate the myth that the natives are Federation rebels. Yet Fion and Bryton, begin to realise the natives have a great deal more on their agenda than holding onto their way of life.

Meanwhile, Her Royal Highness recognizes she is in a position to use the falsehood of rebel insurgents in advancing her own design ... and unwittingly upsetting the natives' plans. Aramay, while falling in love with the natives' way of life, is yearning to meet that one person she has instantly fallen for. And it is here that she begins to learn about her own history which carries with it both sadness and joy.
