The tenure of Axiom Nexus in watching the multiverse comes to an end.

Synopsis

In Axiom Nexus, Rhinox finally shuts off the last of his observation screens as Megatron and Optimus Prime watch; with the Shroud fallen, they can no longer observe the multiverse as they once did. Optimus proclaims that with the multiverse inaccessible, the barriers between TransTech and offworlder must be brought down, something that Megatron confesses will take some getting used to. Just as Optimus reassures his old ally that they will make things work, an alert comes in: there is one final group of travellers arriving in Axiom Nexus, hailing from Primax 207.0 Epsilon... a universe that, to Rhinox's confusion, was destroyed years before. Realising that they must have arrived "the long way round", Optimus takes his fellow TransTechs to meet their new arrivals, and welcomes the stragglers — the former crew of the Graviton — to Axiom Nexus...
