    Summary

    Criston stiffened, and his breath paused. An awful sensation, cold enough to numb, had begun to clamber up his limbs, wrenching him into place.

    In he breathed.

    As the brisk air of dawn rattled into his lungs, he rasped hoarsely against the thunderous, sudden agony spurting in from every orifice, wriggling between tendons and joints. In he breathed.

    As man scorned god, god scorned man. He belonged to no faith, and thus none would claim him.

    "Seven Hells," swore some unseen stranger - no friend or foe. "Look at the state o' ye, lad!"

    Otherwise: Criston Cole survives the Butcher's Ball, and feverishly follows his new, burning purpose south towards Tumbleton.
