[ So after this, promptly followed by a visit to the Ringmaster, Childermass will be turning his radio back on and, unshockingly, delivering a vague and potentially unsettling request. ]

This is Childermass. [ Like anyone doesn't recognize an English accent that's been gargling gravel by now. ] I would like all of us to keep an eye out for Summer Court activity in our upcoming stops. The letter I received from the Summerlands makes me think they might make a play for the Blue Rose.

Define 'bleak'.

[Come on dude, share with the class.]

Defining it isn't that straightforward.

I believe in her attempt to be the one to bring a victory home to her master she has only brought herself disaster. The Rose Queen is robbed of something she feels should be hers and Nightshade is all that remains to take it out on.

Nightshade wasn't particularly excited about working for the Rose Queen in the first place. She kinda let that slip a few dozen times while I was stuck in her garden.

The Rose Queen had a reputation for being a weirdo recluse, even among the angels. People like you and Nightshade were the ones she got doing most of her dirty work.

Which means the reading could also have been saying she made her own run for it but won't truly ever be able to escape. Either way, wherever she is, she should be having a hard time.

[osteothropy]

Is... that a good thing, or a bad thing? In your perception.

[atouts]

Which part?

[osteothropy]

Nightshade having a hard time.

Personally, I don't care if she's suffering.

On a grander scale? It could be either. Maybe it forces her into hiding, maybe it makes her seek revenge. I cannot know.
