En Earthfall, la familia de Wetchik, seleccionada por la Superalma del planeta colonia Harmony para llevarla de regreso a la Tierra perdida, se ha convertido en una tribu durante su viaje al puerto espacial oculto de Harmony. Ahora, están listos para emprender un viaje a las estrellas. Sin embargo, desde el principio, ha existido una amarga disputa entre Nafai y Elemak, el hijo menor y el hijo mayor de Wetchik. A bordo de la nave estelar Bailica, los hijos de la tribu se convertirán en peones de esta lucha. Dos facciones planean en secreto despertar a los niños, y a ellos mismos, antes de tiempo de las cápsulas de sueño criogénico en las que pasarán las largas décadas del viaje. Cada lado espera influir en las mentes de los niños, ganando su lealtad en la lucha por el control de la Tierra recuperada. Pero la Superalma tiene el control de este viaje, ha descargado una copia completa de sí misma en las computadoras de la nave. Y solo Nafai, quien lleva el Manto del Amo Estelar por orden de la Superalma, comprende lo que esto significará para sus planes futuros.
