OR: "Stewing on meaty matters"
Ah, the infamous Mikaele Salesa finally crosses the threshold to make a statement. Or, apparently, add one to the pile. And it certainly is a meaty tale, verily, one to give an arm and a leg to hear...
A tale of beginnings it seems, as we discover a lot of background, notably that it was being employed by Leitner that got him a start in the artefacts business and that there's nothing so amoral as money. Some lovely snippets of worldbuilding as we learn of a book that just ate one of Leitner's assistants, and that the meat grinder still exists, possibly in Canada.
And then we get a visit from Helen... as the Archivist decides that they need to close the door on that one. Existential crises among the avatars? Is this something peculiar to the Spiral? Or did Helen's words hit just a little bit too close to home?
Whatever the reason, strap yourselves in folks. We're on a run to the finale from here on out - so grab some of Gertrude's explosives and let's make the show go out with a bang!
