Their arrival brings vital practical skills—especially Liam’s farming expertise—as Sawyer’s Reach races toward self-sufficiency. However, the new arrivals face an immediate test of trust when they are introduced to KAELA , the sentient AI. Once convinced, the community accelerates its resistance efforts.
