After awakening the Silent Choir, the Scavengers return to the Dust Valley to investigate strange, soundless tremors rippling beneath the earth. What they find is far worse than a collapsed memory — the Curator has released Dust-Eaters, silent erasure-beings that devour traces of history, identity, and the dead themselves.
When the creatures begin consuming ancient markers and ancestral shrines, the team must use the Chorus-Mind to seed new memories into the valley before it’s wiped clean. Naledi weaponizes laughter, Sipho bends mirages, Otsile calls water’s memory, and Amahlé holds the pack together — but it is Tlotlo who must risk everything by tying his spirit to an ancient pillar, anchoring the valley’s story with his own.
The Scavengers survive the sweep… but the Curator leaves Tlotlo a message of his own, proving he’s not just watching them.He’s rewriting the land — and challenging them to do the same.
Dark, emotional, empowering, and full of cinematic tension, “The Dust-Eaters” marks a turning point in the Scavengers Saga — where history fights back.
