The colonists, who fled political persecution on Terra, have adapted to their new world, forming alliances with the native mermen. Dalgard and Sssuri embark on a journey to investigate rumors of the return of "Those Others," the original inhabitants of Astra, who are believed to have left behind dangerous knowledge and technology. As they traverse the landscape, they encounter signs of recent activity, suggesting that the ancient enemies may be attempting to reclaim their lost power.

The novel explores themes of survival, adaptation, and the ethical dilemmas of rediscovering lost technologies. As Dalgard and Raf's paths converge, they must navigate the complexities of interspecies communication and the potential threat posed by the resurgence of Those Others.
