Peace has returned to Kelvoo's life and to the human homeworld. Ashamed of their violent history, the humans of Terra have isolated themselves for decades, and out of that isolation a Terran cult has emerged that worships Kelvoo as a legendary figure.

A long-anticipated planetary alignment affecting Kelvoo's world is viewed by Terrans as a sign of Kelvoo's return to save humanity from itself. To fulfill their "prophecy," the cult leaders abduct Kelvoo, only to learn that their "savior" wants nothing to do with the madness of their religious fervor.

The Planetary Alliance demands Kelvoo's release but is bogged down by its own regulations and bureaucracy. As unrest on Terra reaches a boiling point, Kelvoo's life is in increasing danger. This prompts Kelvoo's now elderly foster daughters, Brenna and May, to take matters into their own hands. Their perilous rescue mission leaves Kelvoo with a dire choice that may require the ultimate sacrifice.
