When one of the CDA's human agents stops an incursion, they're given the reward of time.

Others quietly sit by pristine rivers so they can look at what they're trying to defend.

On a warm spring night, Melissa has her two hours, and she wants to use the time for connecting with a friend.

The friend wants something more.
