Zachry Bailey Timeline & Summary

  • In a post-apocalyptic future, a tribesman named Zachry Bailey watches his father get slaughtered by Kona warriors. Zachry believes he is fated to be cursed.
  • When a Prescient woman named Meronym stays with Zachry's family (kind of like a foreign exchange student, but without the exchange), Zachry believes she is up to no good and tries to prove her to be a traitor.
  • Zachry's sister almost dies from a poisonous animal sting, but Meronym saves her. Zachry agrees to help Meronym from then on out.
  • Zachry and Meronym hike to the top of Mauna Kea so Meronym can analyze the observatories there.
  • On the way down, Zachry has the opportunity to kill Meronym, but due to a vision he received from Sonmi, he does not.
  • On Market Day, Kona warriors attack, kill most of Zachry's tribe, and take Zachry into slavery.
  • Meronym rescues Zachry. Together, they learn that all the Prescients are missing, presumed dead, and they can only live in safety on Maui.
  • They ride through Kona territory and escape the Big I.
  • When Zachry's story ends, his children tell us that he left them a little something—an orison. It's an egg that plays a video—a video of Sonmi-451.
