In this second journey through the universe with Onedans there are several issues at hand. Nalvionne, after failed defiance against her father and unable to persuade her younger brother not to follow her misguided efforts to overhaul the nature of a hostile world, has resigned to the fact that her father's mission is the most appropriate method of protecting peaceful worlds. She reluctantly joins the council established to analyze and evaluate a planet to determine its ultimate fate. Still doubting what success is considered. And opposed to the total annihilation of all life.
Aiden, Nalvionne's younger brother was exiled on a primitive hostile planet that would have been destroyed if not for his defiance. His father expected that after being exposed to and trained by a planet full of warriors that he would have a tougher mindset. He should readily partake in the mission with decisive force against enemies when he observed the hostile behaviors that could threaten peaceful worlds when space travel advances inevitably develop. Aiden was assigned six generations to exhaust whatever influences he could to stop this hostile world he was left on from its historically ingrained habits. Something his father knew he would fail at, since millions of years of Onedan studies would have to be in error if this mission was unjust.
Vadion was infuriated with the opposition of his children, regretting not exposing them to the mission when they were younger and more impressionable. He suffered the effects of his gruesome work violently ensuring peace through the universe. Absent is his wife, still comatose from birthing their son. Vadion dwells in his dilemma of not properly pacing his children into the mission, unless he had another opportunity to do it correctly. Vadion was loved and admired by the entire crew of his ship, loved and adored as one of the most historic men of his world. It would not be very difficult for him to obtain a new mate to avoid his first mistakes. A child could be taken from a comfortable habitat and purposely conditioned to be ruthless, contrary to the peaceful nature of his home world. A Rogue Onedan.
