○ A crowd noticed us. There’s a familiar person in a linen suit introducing us as The Partners of Revelry
§ It’s Knock-Down Jimmy. He clearly wants to talk to us. We follow him into town

• Patricia met a cleric of the New School when she was kidnapped “He explained so much to me” “The fate of the Sheffan Expanse lies in the plans of him and his associates”

○ Patricia comes out a few minutes later “That was difficult” She worries that is difficult to persuade others about the situation.
○ The less bad thing happening right now is the voidsong.
○ We had off the socialist literature to Patricia to hand to her friends, who are going to like it because it questions the supremacy of the abby
○ Bramble recognizes the bard as Lyla. Bramble goes in and bear hugs her.

○ Marcel tells us about her interactions with the transit society

§ Working with a group called “The New Sheffans.”
§ The Transit society intoned that they could say Sheffans from the fighting between Calcedon and Bluestone.
§ The Transit society would pose a threat to the Twins, and Marcel declined to participate. She made it clear to the New School that they were operating counter to the Twins.. [The Transit Society is extrasolar, yet everyone we’ve met.
