This episode begins with Locke meeting Jean for the first time.  The two don’t get along at the start. Later Chains sends Jean off to train to become a brawler.

In the “present day” Locke meets with Capa Barsavi only to discover that Nazca has been killed.  Locke confronts The Falconer, but this doesn’t end well for Locke.  Locke devises a clever and colorful event to get out of his obligation to Capa Barsavi.

 

Predictions:

* Nazca isn’t dead.

* The Gray King is Locke’s father.

* Locke will be responsible (or blamed) for The Falconers death.

* The magic in this world is tied to the Eldren.

Next week we’ll read through the interlude entitled “The Half Crown War.”
