→Late years in the Roughs and the return to Elendel
|
In his early months in Elendel, Wax earned a reputation for frequently disappearing early from social functions, taking instead to steel-pushing through the mists, in patrol of the city. On one such night, Waxillium pauses his patrol to try intervening in a shootout. Believing he hears a woman's whimper that reminds him of Lessie, Wax freezes during the gunfight. Coming to the conclusion that he was no longer capable of being a lawman, and with the effectiveness of the city constabulary forcing him to face the irrelevance of vigilante justice in general, Wax hangs up his guns for good.
Throwing himself into the much more mundane effort of saving his house’s financial future, Waxillium spends half a year working to reverse his late uncle’s squandering of the family funds. Believing there is no other choice, he enters into a marriage agreement with [[Lord Harms]]’ daughter, [[
That same day, Wayne, an old partner from his time in the Roughs, re-enters Wax’s life carrying with him an [[aluminum]] bullet and a tantalizing mystery surrounding a gang of train robbers known as the [[Vanishers]], which threatens to draw Wax away from his house responsibilities and right back into the life of a lawman.
