It’s been a year since the humans were taught how to remove the souls from the human bodies. Wanda has become an essential part of the underground civilization, helping the doctor heal patients and going out to help gather supplies for Uncle Jeb’s house guests. The caves are continuously being expanded because of the growth in the human population.

Few souls are allowed to live in the human hideout and they are only allowed after they have been, unsuccessfully, take from the host body and replaced back in. Some souls - souls that can coexist peacefully with the humans and are unable to find the minds of the bodies they possess - have been allowed to stay. In such cases where the host mind returns, those souls are placed into hibernation chambers until a host that has no hopes comes into the cave system. Most of these hosts now belong to captured souls.

The human population is growing rapidly. There are more survivors than anyone would have thought and they have come to live with Uncle Jeb and the others. Their numbers add to the successful separation of souls from their host bodies and the few souls that are allowed to live with the humans. Some think that the time has come to reenter the world above the ground and take back what the souls have taken from the humans. Others aren’t optimistic about that path; they don’t think they will be successful.

Life carries on in the underground cave, but tension is rising and everyone can feel it. It’s only a matter of time before the chaos begins.
