Mungo is about return to Manda when Auren presents him with a Roonstone. She leads him to Old Ogger, an old hermit living in a crashed freighter. Ogger is none other than Mungo's long lost uncle, who entrusts Mungo with his kit bag filled with six bags of Roonstones and plenty of clues to find their source. Hot on their trail, Governor Koong and Admiral Screed capture Mungo and friends and put them on a ship to Koong Island.
