After the Cloning

Led by Valda, the androids develop technologies to help them restore humanity but their efforts are not without a price.

Valda continues to drive the other androids and to search for more human women to serve as hosts for her cloning programme.

Conflicts with the Masses occur but the androids have technology at their disposal and they are able to overcome the odds with acceptable losses.

Valda transfers selected parts of her AI to a few other androids so that she can delegate some of her work. This leads to unexpected developments on the android production line.

The Technical Experts decide that they want new bodies and they make the first truly human-like male androids with the assistance of Ben, the male loner who was the first human to enter the Nubs after the plague.

The unpredictable conclusion is bound to stir conflicting emotions...
