Arc

Ninety pounds, twenty years old, scrubs and a magical cloak, a longsword, and twelve crawler-killer skulls: the residents the monsters would otherwise have burned (ch. 22). She says nothing until the end of that chapter — 'And how are we going to do that?' — and rarely more afterwards, but she is the competence in every plan: stabbing through the Speedbump's ceiling in tears (ch. 26), the 300-foot chain that makes the residents' train possible (ch. 37), the observation that opening the safe-room door is the way past the elemental (ch. 40). She is the one who sits down and shows Carl how to use the pedicure kit (ch. 32). Her last image in the book is the recap's: pausing at the third-floor entrance to raise a middle finger at the ceiling (ch. 44).
