Summary
In the month after the midnight attack on Doyenne Undela Apogica, the crew of the Myriad explore the nearby deserts and jungles* in preparation for a journey to the region's largest settlement. The artist Grand Magnificent finds an abandoned production facility lost in the dunes, while Echo Reverie finds a strangely shifting monument to the past. Even Gardner picks through the remains of a Crown of Glass Saint* for parts, and Gig Kep-hart finds that new friends come from surprising places.

Jungle (Statue)
The buzzing of waxwings, and panting, and howls. Sunlight through canopy. Thick trunks. A line of visibility towards the sand. A figure—stone, and more—her hand up in the air.
