Complete story — includes the ending
On Ilus, the Earthers and the Belters set up separate camps inside the alien structure. Everyone besides Holden, who is immune, has been infected with microorganisms that are growing in their eyes; Okoye determines that the microorganisms will cause blindness. Settlers also start being killed by neurotoxic "slugs" that are growing along and crawling out of the structure's walls from the Ilus oceans. Murtry plans to outlast the Belters and plots against Holden. Amidst the fusion shutdown, Lucia devises a solution to keep the Barbapiccola from falling out of orbit: tethering the ship to the Rocinante. On Earth, Avasarala is upset over her dwindling support in the poll numbers. After receiving the video evidence of Inaros' location from the OPA, she orders a team of UN marines to board the Pizzouza and capture Inaros alive with minimal casualties, but he is not found; a firefight breaks out before the ship explodes, killing everyone aboard.
