Synopsis:
When the Judge Rock falls, Huss and the Geomancers believe they have won their eternal conflict with the Orthodoxy. When it is revealed that Rhea is actually responsible, Rebis suggests a potlatch to resolve the dispute. Both the Orthodoxy and the Geomancers take turns making sacrifices until everything they value is gone. Rhea then reveals that the rock is an angel who fled Earth with a branch from the Tree of Knowledge. It created the world, but it only knew conflict, so it pitted both factions against each other. Cliff plants the branch which gives the angel the creativity to have both sides work together. Rhea then departs for the stars, while Cliff and the others head back to Earth.
