The stage has been set for an incredible battle. John Prophet is locked up, awaiting his fate at the hands of the Dwellers’ justice.

Their “BOL” in rural Maine seems far, far away from the troubles afflicting old New York, but this feeling of safety is about to be annihilated. Because in an open field, as a band plays fiddle and Marc and Luke watch the stars, a darker shape looms on the horizon…

And in the City, two forces rise up in mighty conflagration. The stakes are raised and the battle for the soul of the City is underway.

Angels and devils appear in the streets and fire rains from the sky. When the smoke clears, there are victors and losers, and a long road yet ahead for Maria, Luke, and Marc.

With horrors behind them and uncertainty ahead of them, Luke and Maria must come to terms — the road without each other is too frightening. Meanwhile, they have a new friend, one of the Dwellers who shows them beneath the surface of a world that has existed nearby to them their whole lives that they’ve never seen.

While the youths bond, Prophet is dragged before the Dwellers and Refuge alike to confront his actions. Prophet makes one last plea, telling the story of his battles with the Republic and the dangers that confront everyone and makes a poignant case: do these angered tribes unite against a common enemy, or destroy the man who has wronged so many to get this far?

In the wake of the nightmare that was Tully’s barn, Sam appears ready to go to battle. But there is no battle left, and no chance to help but to mop up the mess. Marc, a wounded young warrior from the Dwellers, tries to keep his lips tight about his homeland and his plight, but it’s clear there are few options left but to plow forward, whatever the cost.

Amos and Lucian escape the fire and conflagration with Paul, a strange man who bears witness to a coming holy war. Paul leads them to the home of his people – the Believers – who welcome them with open arms. Arms maybe a little too open.

Zeke, awkwardly moving into a new role, tells a secret to Richard that sets unimaginable wheels into motion.

Having made her decision to continue on the journey, Maria follows John’s direction and steers their canoe downriver. But evils lay before them in this torn land. In a bleak homely homestead in the woods, amidst stacks of rusted up junk cars and a hodge-podge hydro-mill, Maria and John encounter a monster – one that walks on two legs. Can they survive a horror of this hopeless age?

Meanwhile, in the Republic, Lucian finds himself out of hope and alone in the sewers. All seems lost, until a man emerges from the deep, promising him a life of redemption if he only pledges fealty to God in heaven. Little does Lucian know that this wandering preacher is looking for something, too… And what they’re looking for has the power to upset the equilibrium of their fair city and usher in the ultimate battle.
