It is wrong. This episode pulls back the full history of the Moons, the oldest people on Lumaria, and the civilization they quietly built while everyone else was busy underestimating them. From the colonial violence of the Zionite arrival to the living neural network threading beneath forty square kilometers of forest, the Grove is not what it appears on any city map, and the Moons have been counting on that for a very long time. When Elias Musken's checkpoints go up around Grove territory, the Anchor Council convenes at the base of the oldest tree on the planet. Dawn Division operator Faelyn Hawke steps forward when she shouldn't, says the thing no one else will, and earns herself a deadline. Then Narie tells her something that changes everything: the dome has a fracture, Mercer Leigh put it there, and Mercer is somewhere inside the Frostveil Pass with no way to reach him. Across the city, Jarika Moon wakes up gasping from a Theta contact she didn't choose, carrying a name she wasn't expecting and a request she can't ignore.
