Summary
Essek's stomach whined at him like it too had been cast back into the memories where a grumble would have been too forward. The aching hollowness felt somehow reassuring, even though it was unpleasant. It was a little bit of home—and what has home been for him in recent years but a dull ache?
Essek tries to undo the tangled web of ambition, guilt, and alienation that brought him to steal the beacons. He is, after all, his own punishment.
(Detailed ED warnings in the notes of the first chapter)

Summary
Caleb Widogast's life is finally looking like it's on track: he's got a good job, his friends are all doing well, he remembers to take decent care of himself, and his familiar is the most popular figure in the Nicodranas library. Things are finally good. But are things ever truly quiet when your friends are The Mighty Nein?
Dr. Essek Theylss has been exiled to the worst place his mother could think of — bright, sunny Nicodranas. Luckily, unbeknownst to her, Essek has a friend there already. Unbeknownst to him, his friend has been impatient to drag him into her shenanigans for a very long time.

Six months ago, Beau adopted a teenager who loves the Cobalt Soul, but can't stand her. Ten minutes ago, Caleb accidentally summoned his own teenage self into his living room. So you know, they're both going though some shit.
At least Caleb's got experience befriending novice monks with attitude problems. And Beau's got experience befriending Caleb.

Summary
There are still many dangers in Aeor.
Other hunters and tomb robbers, and all manner of strange traps, but it's the cold (and his own pride) that threatens Essek when he and Caleb are separated after an exhausting day of adventuring.

Summary
When they take the first finger, Essek feels relief.
There are a multitude of reasons, the first being that they, in some form of providence, selected his right pinky for amputation. His least used finger on his non-dominant hand, not crucial in any somatics, markedly his least beloved bundle of phalanges. He thinks, deliriously happy, riding the high of blood loss, 'I am still useful'.
