He warns her the KimMorii will soon invade and if they find her and take the stone from her by force, she will die.Although Amber is willing to give the stone to Septies, he cannot yet take it back to his universe.

Can she and Peol guard M bius until Septies can safely retrieve it?Like the Ocellus story, M bius is huge in scope and deep in emotion and takes the reader into alternative universes, dramatic battles and doomed relationships
