This volume doesn't contain a single arc, but rather multiple different plotlines as Gert attempts to find a new way home. While the issues were still engaging to read, they did feel slightly directionless since a completely new trial without payoff was the focus of each comic.

A new side-character was introduced and promptly abandoned by Gert, though I doubt we've seen the last of him. Additionally, Gert's selfish and malevolent choices have seemingly been revealed to cause many more grave consequences than she originally envisioned.
