After entering a portal into the Nowhere, Spensa had come into contact with a choice to enter the Nowhere or return to her home. She chooses to enter the Nowhere, believing as she is that she cannot give her friends the advantage they need over the Superiority. Spensa emerges at the edge of the Nowhere where it crosses over into her universe, the "somewhere", and finds that many areas of land called "fragments" surround the center of the Nowhere, which is a luminous sun called the lightburst. She quickly gains the help of Chet Starfinder, a human explorer who has been in the Nowhere for 170 years, and deduces that he is actually Commander Spears, M-Bot's previous owner. The Nowhere is occupied by rival pirate gangs controlling areas of fragments, and as Spensa, M-Bot, and Chet traverse different fragments containing diverse environments, they hope to cross through the pirate lands into No Man's Land, the area surrounding the lightburst. Spensa, who was told to follow the "Path of Elders" by her delver ally, journeys with Chet to find different portal stones placed throughout fragments.
