Aphra Behn wakes up to the aftermath of the lecture, to scholars panicked | Aphra Behn wakes up to the aftermath of the lecture, to scholars panicked around the house. Rumors fly, of spirits and windows to heaven, of Silver starting a fire. People are being detained for questioning, and Salomon enters, ordering her arrested, just to keep her out of the way. Salomon's servants inform her that he is one of the Five Masters of the Service; this entire situation was a setup. As Behn is removed to secure premises, her captor is incapacitated, Aphra's patron, her true patron, appears, a nymph who she swore herself to long ago. [[Larissa]]. Larissa insists that she must follow after Nate, capture him. Behn spies him dashing in between the shadows and manages to pin him down outside. Larissa appears again, observing him. Yes. Nathaniel Silver is the anomaly. She pulls out a [[continuity needle|needle]], ready to excise him, but stops, realizing that while he is the anomaly, it isn't there with him. The discussion cuts short - the Service is upon them; he escapes through Behn distracting them, returning to Salomon's House where she learns that Faction Paradox has vanished as well. | ||
