The Transformers of the 19th century must contend with the Elder Gods.

Synopsis

Underwater in the Great Banks by the Flemish Cap in the Atlantic Ocean in 1887, the Seacons lay silent and waiting. They are activated by a race of fish-men, who bring the Decepticons to their unearthly city.

A year later, the USS Miskatonic is traveling to Ireland when it is attacked by a tentacled and underwater menace. Ironhide, who has been hidden aboard the ship, jumps into the water, realizing the creature as an alien lifeform, and swims to the other Autobots to warn them.

One week later, in San Francisco, the married Tobias and Kitty Muldoon are walking down a street with their two children when Bumblebee, now with a new trolley mode, approaches them. With the invasion of the Elder Gods, Bumblebee needs Tobias's help again. What he needs is 1,000,000 watts of electricity. Muldoon makes it to Edison Machine Works in Schenectady, New York, a week later, but is refused the absurd amount of electricity by Thomas Edison himself. One of his workers, Nikola Tesla, finds the prospect intriguing and offers his assistance.

Elsewhere, in Port Cenotaph, Nova Scotia, the fish people surface in the thousands. Hidden underwater, Ironhide observes them, but runs into Bonecrusher, who has been pulled into the Elder Gods' servitude. Despite some fight, Ironhide succumbs to Bonecrusher's tentacles.

Two days later, Tesla and Muldoon are on a train in Quebec to Sant Felicien. Tesla finds the train strange, as it has not stopped for fuel and it is absent crew. Tesla finds out the secret when the rail ends in Ivujivik, Ontario, and the components of the train reveal themselves to be the Autobots Trailblazer, Hound, and Ratchet. The Autobots travel in foot while the humans ride in the comforts of Wheeljack's vehicle mode.

In Port Cenotaph, a boat's two-man crew discover that the city's populace has been changed, and that it is haunted by gigantic robots. Tentacles emerge from the water and pull the boat underwater.

On the north slope of the Mare Ruek Glacier, the Autobots and the humans find what they have been seeking—the Autobot leader, Optimus Prime!
