Thunderstone - Season 1 (1999)

The Nomads are making their way apprehensively along the Deep Road. Arushka shows Noah the mural of the Wild Things, a hand painted depiction of a Noah's Ark of animals, wondrous creatures that no longer exist.

As Arushka and Chip arrive at the Thunderstone mine to rescue Sundance from the Protectors, Noah joins them. This could be his ticket home, a chance to access power.

Noah and Arushka stare gob smacked at the huge creature before them. This is a circus in 1999 - they have gone back too far.

With the escaped lion on the bonnet of the police car, a horrified and amazed crowd watches as Arushka calms him. She achieves instant star status when she gestures the animal back into his cage.

Tao has a plan to capture the Nomads - with the help of his Sentinel he will trap them in their own lair.

Still trapped under the Beast trailer, Noah and Sundance see Arushka approaching on Moshi. Tao, impressed with her bravery, and interested in Moshi, steps out to confront her.

Noah and Arushka white-in, arriving in some bush country abundant with wildlife, and to Arushka's delight, horses. Her reverie is shattered as gunshots ring through the air.

Arushka, still trapped in the past and hunted by Bully, Mac and Duane, saves Mac from being trampled by a wild brumby. Awed by the mystical effect she has on the animal, they listen to her story.

Noah needs to recharge his PHT's in the Protector's mine in order to get back to North Col. Dr. Pretorius and the Daniels family are called in front of the Triumvirate. Noah and the Nomads argue over what is best for the animals.

In the middle of the red desert a furious Tao stands before a burning effigy of himself. Unguarded, the Beast's trailer looms behind.

Noah has been forced to give in to Tao, who would have used the destructive Electronet on Dolly's puppies. Now a prisoner in the Keep, Noah discovers Ferris and retrieves his PH-Ts which Ferris has stolen.

Noah and the Nomads are forced from safety by the Thunderstone smoke that continues to billow out of the Cavern; they are surrounded by Protectors and trapped by the Electronets.

Sundance, jumped by Sutch in the Deep Road as he searches for Ferris, is thrown down the Devil's run. As he fights the rapids to stay alive, the Nomads search unsuccessfully for him.

Facing a 5-year sentence for lying after their attempt to prove time travel to the Triumvirate fails, Becky helps Noah and Geneva escape. Arushka and Dolly search for Sundance while the protectors prepare to activate the electronet.

Dr. Pretorius leads Geneva and Noah through a Topside blizzard to his secret research lab. Armed with the PH-Ts and Dr. Pretorius' new Silverwing device, which will defeat Tao's Electronets, Noah is ready to take Geneva back to Haven.

Tao sits in the Beast with his anger rising watching as one by one all of the Electronets are destroyed. The Silverwing has saved the animals. Noah, his sister Becky and the Nomads have won the battle but not the war.

With Noah and Arushka safely imprisoned in the Beast, Tao roars off leaving Chip alone under the relentless sun of the Red Desert. On a rescue mission, Sundance and Becky find him, exhausted and thirsty but alive.

Tao offers Noah a share of the rabies vaccine and power to return to him to North Col. With Noah gone and the maserguns to rid Haven of the animals, Tao is now free to find more Thunderstone.

The thought that he could be the monstrous Shadowmaster tortures Noah as he waits anxiously for the results of his father's tests on vaccine.

Noah cannot believe that he is, or that in the future he will become, the creature that stands before him. The Shadowmaster tells Noah that it is time he learnt the truth. They both white-out of North Col and arrive in Haven.

The Daniels family are blamed for the rabies virus and the North Col community will not listen as Noah tells them the rats weren't real but holograms.

While the unsuspecting citizens of North Col are preparing for their journey to Haven, the Shadowmaster is assuring Tao that a labour force will arrive soon to help in the mining of the Thunderstone.

In a Topside blizzard the bewildered Nomads make their way into North Col where Geneva guides them to the holodeck.
