Summary
I’ll not have a picture, he thinks, gazing grimly at James’ drawn, damaged face. I’ll not have a miniature to tuck inside my breast pocket, or a sketch made on a winter’s evening by the fireside. It will be my own burden to remember him, until such a time as this cursed land takes me, too.
Twenty five men return to England. For Francis, this means making a poor job of keeping James from scuttling his career, and working out what a sea captain might do with himself in the absence of a ship.

Summary
“My heart for Miss Cracroft’s,” James explained, forcing his voice to sound certain and calm even if he was quickly feeling anything but. Crozier kept staring at him, a thunderstorm growing in his face. The furious silence reigned between them for another minute before James added, “You... eat the hearts of the… young and beautiful…”
The Wizard Crozier’s stare was hard and unbreakable. James could feel the snappings of electricity in the air around them, the hair standing up on the back of his neck. He could feel it now, the sheer power in this man.

Summary
“There’s colour in your cheeks, at least,” Francis judged, and stood. “I will return with the doctor as soon as I may. Do stay upright, James,” he added, with a tinge of real worry.
“I am capable of sitting in a chair,” James returned with some hauteur, and then Francis left the tent and James had to put all his effort and energy into not making himself a liar.
