They enter Basilisk's camp on probation after Hannah discovers that her biological son Quill Bell (Josiah's biological nephew) is the brother of one of the Sovereigns. He is one of the 11 people to move into the camp along with his 8-year-old daughter, Isobel Kady. After he is killed, his daughter moves into the Bunker along with a small group of survivors from Basilisk (including two Sovereigns) and is later on adopted by Elara Bell. In Season 8, his daughter is also adopted by Kodiak Zora.

**The Implants**

When Rhea and Kane leave The City of Targo to find their new Commander, Josiah is approached along with Hannah and Lydian to develop implants to use of the Commander as a back up in case The Alteration doesn't work.

**Season 6**

After the Sovereigns of Basilisk wrecked havoc in The City of Targo and killed Rhea and Kane, Josiah is part of a small group of people known as Hannah's Clan who negotiate a deal to be taken back to Basilisk after their City was destroyed by them. When it is revealed that Hannah is the biological mother of Quill Bell - the brother of Sovereign Wynn Bell - Josiah and his friends are given permission to travel through the DeadLands and enter Basilisk on a probation. His daughter, Izzy, travels back on the half-bus along with the other children in Hannah's Clan as well as three of the Sovereigns.

**Season 7**

After arriving at Basilisk and assigned to a tent, Josiah is cautious of his new surroundings and whether or not he can provide the best future for his child when he is so powerless with Basilisk. He ends up getting involved with Hannah's plans to use the implant - designed to control the Commander - on the people who threaten her relationship with her biological son. As tensions rise within the two clans and news of a deadly flood is made known to everyone, Josiah plays an all or nothing game to ensure the survival of himself and Izzy. After securing the Bunker wither everyone from Hannah's Clan and Quill inside, Josiah believes they have finally made it to safety, only for everything to switch back to unknown territory. When Josiah and Hannah exit the Bunker after Quill goes in search for his sister, Josiah finds himself under attack by the people of Basilisk and ends up being killed when the flood forces a tree to collapse on him. He leaves behind his eight year old daughter Izzy who is taken care of and adopted by Elara Bell as they spend the next six months in the Bunker together. Elara becomes an adoptive mother to Izzy and later on in Season 8, Kodiak Zora becomes her adoptive father. Izzy occasionally reminisces about her father and recalls memories of their traditions together, however, she prefers not to talk about him too much as it makes her miserable to accept his death.
