    It's been ten deca-pheobs since Red Paladin Keith Kogane left the castleship and joined the Blade of Marmora. Occasionally, he met up with the paladins during a mission, but for the most part, they've been defending the universe and building the Coalition without him.

It's been ten deca-pheobs since Red Paladin Keith Kogane left the castleship and joined the Blade of Marmora. Occasionally, he met up with the paladins during a mission, but for the most part, they've been defending the universe and building the Coalition without him.

The first deca-pheob was hard, but eventually, the rest of the paladins could focus more on the task at hand: defeating Zarkon.

Except for one.

Lance has been stewing in his conflicted feelings since Keith left, and not even his best friend Hunk can get him out of his funk. He's stated multiple times he's simply waiting for "Mullet-Head" to get home, but there's something in his eyes that Hunk just can't decipher.

"Lance is missing!"

The words shocked everyone. They knew they only rarely saw Lance around the castleship, but to hear he was actually missing? That was a surprise.

Red wasn't even missing - the lion was perched in its hangar, forcefield up. The only sign that he was gone was a missing pod and an empty bedroom. Where could he have gone?

Now, the paladins have a missing pilot and no one to replace him. Allura and Shiro together call a search mission to find Lance, and they call to their closest ally to help: The Blade of Marmora.

Unexpected twists and turns await the paladins as they deal with the loss of a close friend and the loss of a pilot. Can they find him before something morbid happens to the beloved Blue Paladin?
