Summary
The stadium intercom flips on, and a voice booms out, “Rogue Umpire incinerated Hiroto Cerna!”
Allan waits. Per knows there’s a next part to this sentence. Someone will be a replacement. There's always a replacement. But nobody is moving.
(Allan Kranch joins the Boston Flowers. It's less exciting than it sounds.)

Summary
Eclipse weather hardly even scares her anymore. That’s probably a mistake, she knows. Incinerations are still just as possible as they’ve always been. But it’s been more than a year since she started, and really, the most she’s had to worry about is the white balance on her tape.
And, in fact, Lani is so focused on balancing the lighting that she doesn’t even notice when the crowd falls silent. She misses the way the shadows grow long, swirling with deep reds and purples. But it’s impossible to miss the roar of an umpire as its form grows, as it sheds its human form and becomes a beast of flame and smoke.
Lani can’t help it. She screams.

Summary
Most days, Allan comes to see them. It’s a surprise the first time. And the second, and the third, and the fourth. It’s a surprise to turn around to find him standing in the doorway with his ring still hanging broken on the chain, and it’s a surprise every time the smithy tries and fails to fix it.
And then, sometime around the seventh time – or maybe it’s the eighth, or the twelfth, or the twentieth – it stops being surprising. It’s normal, or at least unremarkable, for Allan to come and sit on the floor with his back against the smithy’s workbench, water seeping into the hardwood.
