Ram orders the expendables on the other ships to kill the other Rams. All 19 ships find themselves 11,191 years in the past. Eighteen other copies of Ram’s ship are created, complete with copies of the colonists, Ram and the expendable. The jump is made successfully, but with an unintended consequence. If Ram’s starship makes the jump, other ships from Earth will follow with valuable supplies and other colonists. Ram’s only company is an “expendable,” a machine that simulates human life so well that it is capable of making decisions and provides him with company throughout the journey. Since Garden is so far away from Earth, Ram hopes to leap through a fold in space-time, and cut 900 years off their journey. Ram Odin is the highly trained pilot of a starship carrying sleeping human colonists away from Earth and toward the planet of Garden.
