=== Chapter 15 ===
Wax finds the coach with scraped paint parked outside a [[Soothing parlor]]. The proprietor leads him to the [[Chapaou|driver]], who has paid for a private session. Wax asks him a question to make sure he isn't Bleeder in disguise, then asks why he's there. He's trying to forget something that he saw, obviously something terrible.
Marasi finds Aradel on the roof taking reports from a couple of Coinshot contractors. He's decided to ask the governor to declare martial law and close down the pubs. Marasi shares the information about the dam destruction, but he still wants proof that a kandra is involved. Marasi invites him to talk to MeLaan. She turns translucent and confirms that there is a crazy kandra on the loose. After MeLaan's demonstration, Aradel asks Marasi to give him reports on what Wax is doing. Marasi agrees, but only if she also tells him what she's doing. Marasi wonders if that's the only reason that she got the job as his assistant -- so he could have access to Wax. MeLaan rejoins her and they head to the governor's mansion.
Chapaou tells Wax what happened while he examines the items Paalm left behind in the coach. He finds a set of bones and a Pathian robe, plus a bloody mallet. Poor Chapaou thinks that he went crazy and murdered someone, but Wax assures him he was just tricked. Paalm had Chapaou drop her off at Lestib Square, close to the governor's mansion. Wax spots a [[Perchwither|glowing substance]] on the hem of the robes and takes a sample. He gives the coachman some money and tells him not to worry.
