Almost a year of wandering in space on a ship ready to fall apart from a careless sneeze ended well for Max and Nicky. They still achieved their goal and arrived at Commonwealth systems. Everything seems to be fine. Around calmly. No one invades and the world does not stand on the edge of the abyss. But who needs two "savages" in the space Commonwealth?

The epidemic over the past year since departure has not only not subsided, but also threatens that not a single person will remain on the planet... Is there a chance for a young guy and a former military pilot of the First Fleet of the Amar Federation Aerospace Forces? And what does the Forerunner have to do with it?
