Arc

The room that still smells of rotisserie chicken, and the studio where Carl signed autographs with them and stabbed a reporter with a pen (ch. 12); what happened to Dmitri and Maxim made the crown urgent (ch. 19); an ogre like they would have been had they not been ejected (ch. 41); their meteor hammer in Katia's inventory (ch. 64).
