An escaped man from an asylum in the Outer Wilds has all of the rebels on edge. As the botched former government experiment is on the loose the hit lists he left behind are discovered. More startling than the ambitiously long list of names he's written, is the single name he means to save. While both Fallout and Wellspring are searching for answers there are more pressing matters to pay attention to. 13 rebels from each camp have been abducted, and the rival groups place blame on each other. With Wellspring promising public executions the prince makes the long journey from the kingdom to be a witness, among other personal agendas. The Mortician's Widow gets caught in the crossfire as her allegiances have become less than clear to her fellow rebels, and she without the right explanations. Loyalties are switching sides on the brink of a major power struggle. Unlikely allies come to the rescue in more ways than one as the kingdom succeeds in widening the rift amongst the rebels. The time has come to choose sides, but will there be any side worth defending?
