Summary
Three years after the probes carrying Taumoeba and Dr. Ryland Grace's final message arrive on Earth, humanity launches an interstellar spaceship with a brand new mission. Thirty-six crew members (including two graduates of a certain San Franciscan junior high school) travel to the star 40-Eridani to make friendly contact with the Eridians and bring them the alien life form from Tau Ceti-E that can save their star if Dr. Grace's sacrifice failed.
Grace, now fifty-seven years old, is just trying to balance his life as a teacher while no longer being the only human on the planet anymore. It's a big adjustment, but Rocky and the Terra's Grace crew are going to make sure he's well taken care of.

Summary
"What are Erid's geopolitics like?"
“For planet-wide decisions, the role of calling for a thrum falls to the Entites. They are Eridians who in the past made great contributions to Erid, so that when they died the mourning thrum was so great it covered the planet. The planet listened and brought them back. The oldest Entity is 17,000 years old and the youngest is 1,000."
"You guys have reincarnation??"
"New word."
"It's a belief that when a person dies, they're reborn in a new body to live a whole new life. There's no evidence of it though, it's just one belief system among many."
"Yes, like that. It's only for Entities though, not every Eridian. They moult their old carapace, and grow a new one from the materials surrounding them in their grave. That is why it is very important to pick the best materials when building a grave."

Summary
Ryland Grace was starting to think that he had spent a not insignificant amount of his half-remembered time on Earth thinking about sex. As in, more than the average well-adjusted adult should have been.
Grace struggles to understand his own sexuality (or lack thereof) through the brief glimpses of his past he's seen. A lot of time and distance helps him to untangle it all. Rocky is there to help him through it and is very excited to learn what he can.

Summary
Another planet has noticed that 40 Eridani is brightening again, and its inhabitants have showed up to say hello... and to make a very strange offer: each of Erid’s representatives may make a wish. And what Grace and Rocky both want most, but think they can never have, is to better understand the strange way in which the other sees the world. No AI was used in the writing or illustrating of this story.
