Outline

Harmony realises the surgery is not about the implant, but instead siphoning the Artifact’s dust Halan had breathed in during his last mission. Halan finds himself locked in a dimension with Aleph, Bart and Harmony. When Harmony jettisons the piece of Artifact Halan has kept hidden, the Artifact comes back to life, and Aster appears in the dimension. Back in the real world, Iris succeeds in restoring power for the Sybarrans, who can finally leave. Xalterrica stays behind to help Iris in gratitude, but Halan dies in the meantime. Harmony understands she is the driving force behind the dimension and finds a way out with everybody’s help, becoming a true AI/human synthesis. The Artifact communicates with her directly, and deems her worthy to receive “them”.
