In Chapter Thirteen, in a stroke of incredible convenience, the trio receives help escaping from a random forest imp named Quinnley who seems to know way too much about them (which is never explained because he disappears from the narrative after this). Kree has a dream about her family attending her funeral and feels suddenly conflicted about leaving them. I talk a lot about characters—from fleshing out side characters to dissecting why Abreen and Jamison are so flat—as well as my deep-seated hatred of adverbs.
