SUMMARY:

Grace and Rocky find Simon preserved half alive in the tree that grows from his pendant, and they take him back to the ship under quarantine, heavily irradiated, but Grace is desperately hopeful he might be able to save the only other human he might ever see again. Rocky is VERY unsure if this is a good choice. Simon is convinced the two of them are an elaborate, maybe indulgent, hallucination.

After weeks of tests and medical checkups, Simon is cleared from quarantine, still technically WITH radiation symptoms, but nothing that will hurt the others. Grace shows him the stars, and Simon feels very conflicted about it.

The longer Simon spends on the ship, the more signs of The Blood Ocean begin showing up through the Hail Mary, and though Grace was convinced he could help Simon work through HIS hallucinations, he wasn't prepared to start experiencing a very similar reality.
