[edit] Plot Synopsis

Having come to understand her Linyaari past, Acorna has become a member of the crew of the Condor. The crew consists of the mildly eccentric Captain Becker, the ship's feline first mate RK (otherwise known as Roakill), and the Linyaari Aari, who is still scarred physically and emotionally from his capture and subsequent torture by the Khleevi. While searching space for the salvage Becker makes a living selling, they come across the wreck of a ship with information indicating that the Khleevi are on the move in that sector of space, and may come to the Linyaari homeworld of Narhii-Viliinyar before long. Acorna and her friends must now warn their people and find a way to stop the oncoming Khleevi horde.
