Æon goes to destroy the Relical, the dirigible that stores the DNA for cloning. She convinces the other Monicans to ignore the Handler and to help her kill Oren and his men. Æon then goes against both her former allies, who want to kill Trevor, and Oren. Oren has had them all killed to maintain the Goodchild reign. In a confrontation with Trevor and Æon, Oren reveals that nature has corrected the infertility problem and that some women are becoming pregnant. He ordered all of Trevor's research to be destroyed. However, in order to stay in power, Trevor's brother, Oren Goodchild, had her killed along with the other members of the experimental group. One of Trevor's experiments, Una, was successful: she had become pregnant. Æon learns that she is a clone of the original Trevor's wife Katherine and is the first 'Katherine' clone in over 400 years. His ancestors had also worked on this problem. Trevor's ongoing experiments were attempts to reverse the infertility. Cloning was required because the antidote to the virus made humans infertile. With the dead constantly being reborn as new individuals and bearing partial memories of their previous lives, their troubling dreams have increased. Everyone in Bregna is revealed to be a clone, grown from recycled DNA. Æon questions the origins of everyone in Bregna, and in particular, her personal connection to Trevor. When Æon is sent on a mission to kill the government's leader, Trevor Goodchild, she discovers that both she and the Monicans are being manipulated by council members in a secret coup.

After a mission to destroy a surveillance station, Æon comes home to find her sister Una has been mistaken for a Monican and killed. A skilled warrior, named Æon Flux, is a member of the Monicans, an underground rebel organization who communicate through telepathy-enabling technology, and are led by the Handler.
