The ICON hotel block will end tomorrow. Get your room ASAP so that you 1) get the discounted rate and 2) help ICON fill our room block with fen (rather than getting mundanes mixed in).
Only 9 DAYS before ICON 34 starts! See you there!

Michele: wants the money to complete the major con of the book
Mark: But only wants the money to help get revenge on whoever killed his friends
Michele: climbing down the outside the building on the ivy, another man climbs out…
