Sundance, jumped by Sutch in the Deep Road as he seaches for Ferris, is thrown down the Devil's run. As he fights the rapids to stay alive, the Nomads search unsuccessfully for him. Ferris, now accepted as one of them, delivers a distressing message from the Shadowmaster that Noah and Geneva will not be returning to Haven so there will be no equipment. Their battle has been lost before it even began! Who is the Shadowmaster and how did he know Noah was back in North Col? A disempowered Dr. Pretorius manages to have Geneva released into Noah's custody and convinces the other members of the Triumvirate that a demonstration of time-travel will settle the matter. Geneva prepares for her journey home but something goes wrong and she and Noah fail to white-out. The Triumvirate accuse him of lying and place him in detention along with Geneva. Sundance is rescued by the peace loving Sandtribers who take him over the Mountains of the Mist and to his first breathtaking vision of the ocean. Meanwhile, the Shadowmaster is ordering Tao to speed up his efforts in locating the Thunderstone Motherlode, he must find it — it is the future of Haven! (thetvdb.com)
