=== Chapter 5 ===
Wayne stops by Wax's room to 'trade' for some rum, and helps Wax by pointing out that the directions from which the first 4 shots at the auction were chosen to cause chaos. As it's the first day of the month, he has to go through his Trials - delivering money to the daughter of the man he had killed before Wax had found him. His 'trial' is made up of three parts - entering the university (done with the help of a contact), convincing the 'Tyrant of Pashadon' to allow him to see the young woman (achieved by giving her a ticket to a high-profile party, 'borrowed' from Wax), and then giving the money to the young woman, while seeing a picture of the man he murdered and reconfessing to the crime he had committed.
Meanwhile, Wax goes to visit the Village, a street home to the Terris people, to see Elder Vwafendal. He's blocked by some Terrisman, before Vwafendal lets him through, revealing that Wax is her grandson. Wax asks her for information about the Steelrunner murder. She gives him the name of a Terriswoman who has not been seen for awhile
Marasi heads to the precinct offices to report in to Aradel. In conversation, she realizes the reason for the resentment from the others in the office is due to her getting the position of Aradel's assistant of Reddi, one of their own. Aradel assigns Marasi to a street detail sent to help out the Second Octant manage crowds for the governors immanent address.
