    Summary

    Spamton accidentally falls out of the inventory after the events of Chapter 3. Alone and without anybody to help him in Castle Town, where mainly those who still know him aren't friendly to him, Spamton finds a recently-recruited television who doesn't recognize him whatsoever and chooses to use this to his advantage.

    Summary

    Had those hands that now dispense charity not stolen, and choked the last mortal breath out of the bodies of fellow men? Had that brow that now furrows over brewing soothing potions not furrowed over deadly poison, too?

    Had this heart that now pounds in his chest like a bell of the monastery not hungered after things forbidden? Had it not rejoiced in dealing pain just as much as it had in helping others?

    Henry casts aside the Benedictine habit after ten strange and sacred days among monks and hymns. Then, to infiltrate Vranik in the service of his liege lord, he puts on a mask—one of cruelty, corruption, and violence— and it proves to slip on a bit too easily.

    He wears it well—and the comfort of it terrifies him.

    An expansion of Henry’s time in Vranik: facing his own dark desires while vying for Erik’s favour—and then facing his worst fears the moment he loses that favour, suddenly and irrevocably.

    Chapters 1-3 explore Henry - and Henry/Erik.
    Chapters 4-5 are near pure Isterik.
    Chapter 6 is catastrophe.

    Summary

    Gregor has no home but the monastery. His hands are steady and unbloodied as he brews medicines for ailing men he will never see with his own eyes. Henry envies him, somehow. Henry wants, absurdly, to say he's sorry.

    Gregor is afraid of his hands.

    Summary

    The earring that Hoffman had oh-so-kindly left in Strahm’s apartment, the one that Strahm had almost feverishly shoved through the unbroken, virgin skin of his ear lobe, had infected Strahm’s ear to the point that even the breeze brushing against it as he walked to the corner store and back was horrendously painful. He’d had worse injuries, his throat still killed, but the dull, poisonous throb of his ear was getting to him a little bit. A reminder that he was a horny, lust addled man who split his own skin apart for Mark Hoffman, of all people. It didn’t help that he couldn't stop fiddling with it either.

    ~

    Strahm can't seem to find himself any place other than within the concentric circles that Hoffman winds around him. But at least his film collection is there to soften the embarrassment and blows.
