There the group is kidnapped, except for Cole, and taken away. Cole follows them, wanting to rescue his friends, only to find himself and his friends in The Outskirts, an in-between place far from Earth.
He attempts to rescue his friends but ends up enslaved and sees a creation made by a powerdul shaper by the name of Liam but is unfortunately quickly sold after to the Sky Raiders. There he helps them raid strange floating castles, filled with deadly danger. While on a mission, his party is deceived and he is stranded with a slave girl and her mentor, both of whom are shapers.
