;Characters: [[Spook]]
;Summary
Spook has to wear a cloth over his eyes to be able to tolerate sunlight, but he needs to go out during the day to gather intelligence. He loiters by a streetslot in a busy market area that was formerly a canal, posing as a blind beggar, and seeing a procession of guards and prisoners that he was awaiting, goes to follow them, along with Durn, an informant, who tells Spook to keep a close watch. The prisoners, all nobles who didn't leave Urteau as ordered, are locked into a building which is then set aflame.
Spook asks Durn why he is there, and Durn replies to count the skulls, then leaves.
Spook follows the Citizen as he leaves to speak with the town residents, and maneuvers his way through the crowd to get to Quellion's and Beldre's side. He manages to communicate with Beldre without being observed, speaking out against Quellion's murders and promising that the Citizen would die. Eventually, however, Spook is noticed and the guards go after Spook. He manages to hold off three soldiers for a time, but they turn out to be allomancers, including a thug and a coinshot, and eventually is stabbed by a sword that also goes through a thug who gets slain by it, and he loses consciousness.
