Sear, Killian and their band of dissidents continue to attack humans of the surface world, mostly by destroying small fishing boats. Anya's father meets with Killian and promises to equip his band with better weapons. He also tells Killian that humans killed his parents. Enraged by this knowledge, Killian takes over the dissidents and decides it is time to pick a more high profile target for their next attack. Invading the base that deployed the bomb which destroyed Marielle, Killian savagely kills the humans he encounters. Sickened by this change in the man she loves, Anya leaves Killian.
