Chapter 1
I: Disaster
Shann Lantee, a low-ranking Survey worker, survives a Throg attack on his camp because he was out searching for escaped wolverines, Taggi and Togi. He hides in the wilderness, tracking the animals, and begins to adapt to his new reality as the sole survivor on a hostile alien world.
Chapter 2
II: Death of a Ship
Shann Lantee, alone on Warlock with his wolverines Taggi and Togi, struggles to survive in the wilderness after the Throg attack on the Terran camp. He reflects on his conflicts with Garth Thorvald and his lack of formal education. While foraging and hunting, he witnesses a Throg flyer destroy a Terran scoutship, but the Throgs depart without detecting him. He contemplates the mysterious 'dreams' reported by the first Survey scout on Warlock, which may be linked to the planet's seasons.
Chapter 3
III: To Close Ranks
Shann Lantee is rescued from a Throg by Ragnar Thorvald, who has also survived the Throg attack. The two Terrans join forces and begin constructing a primitive shelter and crafting native-style weapons to disguise their presence as a native race, planning to raid the Throg-occupied camp for supplies.
Chapter 4
IV: Sortie
Shann and Thorvald launch a surprise attack on the Throg-occupied Terran camp using fire bombs and primitive weapons. After the assault, Shann retreats to the river, hoping to reunite with the wolverines and Thorvald. He witnesses a Throg killed by his spear and later meets Thorvald on a raft, learning the Throgs have a 'hound' that howls. They cut loose and flee downstream.
Chapter 5
Pursuit
Shann and Thorvald navigate the river into a desert landscape, facing the challenge of feeding the wolverines and the threat of a Throg hound on their trail. Shann shares his dream of a skull-shaped mountain, which intrigues Thorvald, who reveals his own vision of a cavern with a green veil. They must leave the river to cross the heights toward the sea.
