His uncle, the Dragit, however, had set up a secret underground base in the Utah desert with the plan to conquer Earth. Cale-Oosha forbids such a plan and barely manages to escape with his life and his friend and bodyguard Rafe.

While they are resting in a cave, they are attacked by a mangler – a Tyrusian species that looks a bit like a small, vicious dinosaur.
