    Summary

    In which Grantaire is the increasingly disgruntled Guardian of Fear and the Grim Reaper has gone missing.

    “Are you telling us that the Will-o-the-Wisp, whose sole purpose is to mislead humans, has himself gotten lost?” Bossuet asks, attempting, and failing, to suppress his glee.

    “Once I’ve made sure that the world isn’t ending, I’ll be sure to tell Bahorel all about the irony.”

    Summary

    And so, he supposes, he’s ready for his life to begin. (It’s been full of arbitrary beginnings already―beginnings for a person he never was, a person who never existed past the plane of his family’s imaginings.)
