"Act Three - Dayspring" Stryfe has found Tyler Dayspring and the two try to emotionally joust one another.

Not knowing what to believe, Stryfe is accosted by a psi-attack and is given the choice to do something good with his life. He leaves Cable's body.Notes:Error: On page 10, the narrator falsely states that Domino had to be convinced to go to Camp Verde to find Cable.
