	[[Masklin]] leads a small [[The Tribe\|tribe]] of tiny nomes, who live a precarious existence on the fringes of the human world. Sick of being eaten by foxes, he leads them to stow away on a lorry and find safety in the [[Store]], where they discover they are not the only nomes. The Store's nomes worship the Store's creator, [[Arnold Bros. (est 1905)]], and have lived in the Store for so long they don't believe the Outside world exists, making the tribe's life there difficult. An ancient artefact carried by Masklin, "the Thing", reawakens thanks to the electricity in the Store, and reveals it is a computer from their starship: the nomes are originally from another world, stranded here thousands of years ago. The Thing also intercepts human communications, and discovers that the Store will soon be demolished. Masklin must convince the Store nomes of the danger, and then of his plan to survive the coming apocalypse: to steal one of the Store's lorries and escape to the Outside.
