Summary
She could break the Empress like a twig, she knew full well. Could pry her mind open like a river krust; leave behind a drooling husk plagued by nightmares that’d leave her clawing out her own eyes in horror. There was a part of her that itched to do so, even now. And yet...
“A drink,” Delilah found herself saying, not bothering to hide her amusement. “Why not?”--

Summary
He called them Whale Dreams. Only to himself, mind. They were warnings, each and every one.

Summary
The Canvas was destroyed when Verso's soul stopped painting. The end of a long reign of suffering was over.
And then it came back.
Gustave died. He knows that much. He was dead. But now he's back on the ship on the day after the Gommage of everyone who was 33 years old, and now he's back on his way to the continent to repeat the cycle of destruction. But he isn't alone. It quickly becomes apparent that Lune, Sciel, and Maelle are back, too. And they have a plan to save as many lives as possible. And to defeat the painters. Plural. Because that is a thing, apparently.
To Gustave's worry, this plan revolves around Maelle and a man named Verso. A man who will save Maelle on the beach just as he did last time.
But something about this whole things is strange, and this group of survivors they have gathered slowly begin to uncover conspiracies that extend far beyond the problems of their canvas.
Because for Maelle, it's been four years since the canvas was destroyed, and she swears on her brother's grave she wasn't the one to repaint it.
