The nuclear winter has finally subsided, allowing the resilient few who remained sheltered at Yucca Mountain to emerge and begin the arduous task of rebuilding society. As they endeavor to establish a civil society, the survivors find themselves still locked in a relentless war against the jihadist extremists determined to create an Islamic caliphate.

However, the survivors stand united and fiercely defend their home, turning Yucca Mountain into a high-priority target for the extremists. Realizing that survival demands difficult choices, the survivors embrace the idea of living "by the sword, " acknowledging the necessity of strength and force to protect their way of life.

In a dramatic and action-packed mission, the strike team not only thwarts the jihadists' plans but also embarks on a rescue mission to free a group of Mayan farmers enslaved by the caliphate.
The stakes are higher than ever, and the survivors must confront the darkest aspects of their own humanity in their quest for freedom and security."By the Sword" is a gripping tale of sacrifice, courage, and determination as the survivors face their most formidable enemy yet. As the final battle approaches, they are forced to make difficult choices, discovering the true measure of their strength and resilience in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds.
