It looked at me, all smiles, and scrambled up toward the hole. It pressed that exposed eye against the slot, and then it changed. It changed. Skin growing over its face, like mine. A twisted, broken version of me. |

| − | By the year {{date|341|PC}}, Chapaou had lived in [[Elendel]] and worked at [[Ashweather Carriage and Coach]] for several years. On the evening of [[Lady ZoBell's party]], he was driving coach sixteen and was assigned to pick up a person by the name of Shanwan (a [[Terris]] name meaning "secret") in the Fourth Octant.{{book ref|mb5|14}} When the client entered the coach, Chapaou saw that his hands were red. During the ride, he heard noises coming from the interior that raised his suspicions and caused him to peek inside, where he saw a form that he described as a "[[mistwraith]]" that took on a twisted version of his own face. Chapaou drove in a panic the rest of the way to Lestib Square. There, [[Bleeder]] climbed up beside him and whispered to him before fleeing.{{book ref|mb5|15}} Chapaou, after discovering a bundle of bones and a pile of coins left behind in the coach, went to a [[Soothing parlor]] on Decan Street in an attempt to forget what had happened.{{book ref|mb5|14}}{{book ref|mb5|15}} He paid for a private session, but he was so overwrought that he disturbed the other patrons and only paced instead of accepting a massage.{{book ref|mb5|15}} |

| − | In the course of his investigation, [[Waxillium Ladrian]] identified the line of carriage that Bleeder had taken and tracked down the specific carriage driver by looking at the company records at Ashweather Carriage and Coach; the [[Coinshot]] employed there directed him to the Soothing parlor.{{book ref|mb5|14}} When Chapaou saw Wax enter the room, he was overcome by the sight of a lawman. After Wax confirmed his identity, the two of them went outside and conversed by Chapaou's carriage. Chapaou told Wax what had happened while Wax inspected the bundle that included the bones and robe of [[Larskpur]] and the mallet that Bleeder had used to drive the spikes into [[Father Bin]]'s eyes. Wax gave Chapaou a few banknotes before departing.{{book ref|mb5|15}} |
