"What can men know of divinity? For eons, we have tried to understand the All-Maker of the universe--yet we fail to understand even ourselves!"

-- from the teachings of Rahani

Jogarr takes Jemm and Luther back to New Bhok, where they are kept in a tower in solitude from the rest of the Red Saturnians of New Bhok until Jogarr and the other leaders of New Bhok can find out what to do. Meanwhile, on Earth, the efforts of Commander Synn in her search for Red Saturnians lead her to the fortress of Claudius Tull. Synn discovers that Tull has been holding the Red Saturnian Syrra, using her life force for the upkeep of his degenerating body. The issue ends with Jemm defeating a large snake-like creature called a Bentu, resulting in the surrounding spectators to cheer his name.
