After failing to convince either Cupid that the Wellsians were too dangerous to deal with, the Problem-Solvers attempted to get word to the Homeworld, but found that the Governor had emptied out the communications room. They were then confronted by Mandragora and the Governor, assisted by [[Mizrax ag-Ustis|a Wellsian]]. The situation turned into a three-way standoff when Dactylopius also arrived, flanked by Digger and [[Retsha sog-Wampyr|a second Wellsian]], as Digger explained that he'd been on the rebellion's side all along, smuggling out one Wellsian (and its [[Heat Ray]]) to match their enemies' new weapons. The Problem-Solvers were unable to stop the situation escalating until andragora double-crossed the Governor, ordering “his” Wellsian to kill him, but was in turn betrayed by the Wellsian as both aliens revealed that they had no true loyalty to any of the Cupids. They turned their weapons onto Mandragora, seemingly destroying him and causing an explosion which destroyed the two Wellsians as well as the base itself. | After failing to convince either Cupid that the Wellsians were too dangerous to deal with, the Problem-Solvers attempted to get word to the Homeworld, but found that the Governor had emptied out the communications room.

In the aftermath, loyalists and rebels worked together to unlock the Governor's three Fog Ships to make their way back home. [[Pythagoras-858]] berated himself for not having worked out the truth sooner, and also expressed a belief that Mandragora had survived in some shape or form, even if his body had been destroyed. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Resurrection of the Wellsians (short story)|The Resurrection of the Wellsians]]'') When reports came in from “[[Venus#In the 97th Cosmos|Colony World #2]]” that the Wellsians had returned, the [[Cupid Parliament]] made an official statement to the Crew, claiming that it was “nothing to worry about”. However, [[Pythagoras-858|other parties]] within the Crew disagreed, and arranged to republicise the old video Fact File about the Wellsians.
