The Colonel takes the boy, Wyeth Pierce, under her tutelage to prepare him for his role as a member of the Tripping Incarnate. And when he matures in a matter of days, Ingrid falls madly in love with him and she whisks him away to Reykjavik, Iceland and the annual Incarnate Gathering.
At the Gathering, Ingrid and Wyeth are told of three Incarnate who are evil beyond measure, a secret that Incarnate leader Robison has kept for millennia. He tasks Wyeth with vanquishing the evil Trio, but the Trio knows of their plans, and they set off nuclear devastation of every city of size on the planet.
Colonel Ingersol (aka Joan of Arc) guides the Incarnate to her Air Force One to fly to equatorial Africa to escape the fallout and impending nuclear winter.
The Trio are aware of these plans and launch a nuclear-tipped ICBM to their landing site...and as Incarnate, they are reborn as infants in a sheep pasture on New Zealand's South Island, one hundred eighty six years later, where they ultimately confront their nemeses.
