The blinding knife ch 79 to the end.

 Ch 79

Gavin isn't ready to check on Dazen yet.  He wants to do sex to hus sex slave.  But shes not here s o he just goes to sleep.  He wakes up to someone sexually pleasuring him.  He thinks its his sex slaves but it's not.  It's one of the meangirl Hogwarts students.  He's kinda halfheartedly pushing her off as Karris, who has decided to have sex with Gavin (who she knows is really Dazen) pushes her way into the room.  She sees him sexing and runs away.  Gavin kills the Hogwarts meangirl.

ch 80 pg 397

Karris is called to do her black guard duty cause Gavin killed the Hogwarts meangirl.  This is a pain cause she's still dressed for sex, not fighting.

Gavin puts on an invisibility cloak and hides from the people that intend to take him to justice.

Ch 81

dazen escapes for real.  Not into another color prison, but our one of the tunnels Gavin uses to visit Dazen.

Ch 82 pg 407

Kip and Teia talk about the black guard challenge fights and based on who has challenge coins and who's gonna fight who when what the likely end rankings are.

Kip wants Teia to sign the freedom papers.  Teia has a better idea.  The whole system is built around slavery and so if a person is a slave and becomes a black guard their owner gets paid a ton of money.  So kip holds onto Teia's ownership until she becomes a black guard and they split the money.

Ch 83 pg 412

I know Dazen is really Gavin and he was a horrible person.  But I'm always gonna root for a prison break.  Go Dazen Go!!!!

He doesn't make it.  He might have been close, but he set off a booby trap that spelled out the word almost and then dropped him down into the yellow prison.

ch 84 pg 418

Gavin goes down to face Dazen. Lots of screaming ensues.  It seems like they eventually come to am agreement that Dazen will save the world and not harm kip or Karris and Gavin will be exiled to an island for the rest of his short life.  Then Gavin pulls out guns and shoots Dazen dead.  I guess hating your brother is more important than saving the world.

Ch 85 pg 427

 The gurds that were guarding gavin's room (one of whom is naned Gavin) give their testimony to the white about Gavin murdering the higwarts meangirl.  They say Gavin didnt killer.  He pushed her out on the balcony, but then she jumped.  Not sure whats going on here.  In Chapter 79 it seemed pretty clear Gavin threw he r off the balcony.  So maybe theyre lying to protect Gavin or maybe thats what they thunk t hey saw for some reason.

Also, the white gives Karris permission to date Gavin.  That's against the rules currently if any black guard tried ti date the person they were pritecting it woukf be againat the rules.

ch 86 pg 433

Gavin climbs out of the prison and does sex with his sex slave.

Ch 87 pg 437

Kips grandfather summons gavin and says a bunch of mean stuff.  That's his whole deal after all.

ch 88 pg 439

th black guard recruits are doing another mission.  They are split up into teams.  Most of the team is guards and one of them is the "color" and the goal is to get the color to the exit point.  Theyve got money and the gamgs in the area have been informed of the drill so it won't be easy.  Kip's group is kinda doing OK cause kip is their color and he is allowed to shoot people with luxin.

Speaking of shooting, someone with a gun shoots one of the black guard trainees in the neck with a bullet and she's super duper dead.

Ch 89 pg 448

Karris is wandering about the city looking for Gavin.  She gets jumped.  It's very very bad.

Ch 90 pg 451

But not as bad as the black guard recruit we know is already dead.  Her name was Lucia.

It's time for the black guard to go to war.  The trainees will go to war with them. Today is the last fight day.  If you're in the top 14, you are in.  Kip wins a few fights.  He realizes at one point that he has a bit of a conspiracy on his hands.  A group of trainees that are all really good fighters but are currently low ranked, did this on purpose so they could stop him from making it in my challenging up.  So kip challenges as high up as he can and loses the fight.  Things don't look good for Kip.

Ch 91 pg 464

Not sure whats going on here.  My guess is it's kips grandfather looking for the blinding knife.

Ch 92 pg 465

As expected, the group that's working against kip work real crafty like and challenge fighters above kip to push him down a notch.  That is until its Aram's turn.  He's the ringleader of the group.  Kip shames him into picking kip to fight.  Part of this is that you pick the colors you want to fight with. Kip says "ALL OF THEM!!!!" And he thinks this is gonna be awesome.  But then he's told that there are rules against omnichromes using all the colors in black guard fights.  So they end up fighting with just Green.

Aram ends up winning but the fight is so brutal that Aram is disqualified from fighting for the rest of the day.  

Kip goes and sits down next to Gavin and they watch the rest of the fights.  Teia ends up 7th.  Cruxer ends up first.  When the fighting is over Cruxer makes it clear that the testing is over and anything that happens now would count as training.  He then kicks Aram in the knee so hard that it's irreparably broken forever.  Training "accident" and Aram is out and Kip is in.

Ch 93 pg 477

After getting beat up karris tries to limp back home.  Some kindly man finds her and takes her back to the Chromeria.  She wakes up in Gavin's bed.  She is pretty doped up and tells Gavin she wants to see him naked.

Ch 94 pg 479

When Karris wakes up for real Gavin tells her he's Dazen and then he tells her everything else.  But I don't think he tells her he's lost blue and green.  They make out.  The white shows up and they get married.  Now it's Gavin off to plan the war.

Also, we're pretty sure it's Kip's grandfather that had her beaten up and sabotaged Kip's entry into the black guard. 

Ch 95 pg 487

Gavin goes into the war room and sees tjay nobody there was involved in the previous war and tells the generals they don't know what they are doing and leaves.

Ch 96 pg 490

Ironfist tells Gavin He's gotta get a ring. He decides to give her his mom's ring.  He goes to his mom's apartments and finds her slave who explains that she said she'd be freed and Kip's grandfather's man Grinwoody was somehow in charge of the paperwork.  Kip's grandfather being a dipshit Gavin isn't gonna stand for this shit.  He breaks into Kip's grandfather's apartments and gets her paperwork and steals a deck of magic the gathering cards.  

He goes to his moms and gets some money to give to her slave and the ring to give to Karris.

The ring has already been resized for Karris.  It sucks that Kip didn’t get to hang out with his grandmother.  She sounds great.

Ch 97 pg 497

Gavin and ironfist get in a boat and use magic to go real fast and they find the color prince's army.  Also Ilytian ships supplying said army.  

I'm very confused about directions and distances here.  Looking at where the chromeria is and where Ru is It seems like you would head east to get to the Atashian coast and then go north.  But they "overshot the Color Prince's army, going too far south"  but they wouldn't be going south.  They'd be going northeast.  Maybe the map and the words in the book aren't actually related.

Gavin and ironfist go all the way from Ru to Idoss and back and get all the intel they'll need to murder a bunch of relatively innocent sailors tomorrow.   They meet up with the navy headed to Ru and get people ready for tomorrow.  Kip finds Gavin and tells him he wants to come tomorrow.  Gavin has one question,  if he sees Liv and she's attacking will he kill her?  If the answer is no, he can't come.  You can't watch someone's back unless you're willing to kill anyone that would try to stab them.

Ch 98 pg 502

Gavin has a bunch of skimmers and he shows the black guards how to make them go.  They find a big pirate ship.  They talk about how to attack it.  The first three rules of skimmer fight club is go fast.

Ch 99 pg 508 Liv 

Liv and the guy that tried to kill Gavin with the blinding knife are doing sex a lot.  The color prince comes to talk to Liv.  He has some grand plan for her and he isn't telling her what it is.  He has her try to guess.  She does not guess.  

We also find out they don't just have some help from Ilysian ships, they have the full support of the Ilysian navy and they have all but wiped out the Atashian navy already.

Ch 100 pg 513

Kip and his dad and a bunch of black guards go to fight a big pirate ship.   Kip does a cool thing where he uses ultraviolet luxin to draw lines to all the guns every pirate is holding and then sends ultra red to blow them all up.  His dad infects a rat on the ship with red luxin and makes it blow itself up in the gun powder room and it blows up the rest of the ship that Kip's shenhannegans with the guns didn't finish up.

Ch 101 pg 524

Kip's dad goes back to seer Island.  The seer tells him he's gotta go get Karris.  If he doesn't he'll die.  He's gonna die pretty soon anyway, but he's got time enough to do what must be done if he gets Karris.  If he doesn't, he'll die and the old gods will come back.

Also, the seer and the general are married now.  I suppose we gotta couple the main characters with sexy lamps before the end of the book.

Ch 102 pg 533

Zymon ( the guy that failed to kill gav in with the blinding knife) is planning to betray the color prince.  Liv recognizes in this moment just how insane and unstable Zymon is.  She had previously planned to have a prolonged period of making Zymon not like her.  But shes gotta pace up that plan quite a bit.  So she goes to the color prince and tells him about Zymon's planned betrayal.  He knows.  This was his great purpose for her.  To get confirmation that Zymon planned to betray him.

What we hear next is what i presume to be the color prince sending Zymon on  suicide mission.

Ch 103 pg 537

The black guard get in thir lttle boats with their luxin bombs and blow up some bad guy boats.  One of them gets shot.  They go to a nearby village to see a bunch of whales having beached there.  They talk to a guy who tells them about not only this weirdness but also all sorts of other insanity.  Theres a wrongness to things.  The green luxin users can feel it the most.  They go home.  When ironfist goes out the next day he doesnt bring any greens with him.  

kip's grandfather invites him to play magic the gathering.  So hes got something to do instead of blowing up boats.

Ch 104 pg 542

Karris and gavin do sex.  More importantly, they talk about their feelings.

Ch 105 pg 552

Kips grandfather apologies for trying to kill kip and make him not get into the black guard.  He had thought of doing the freeing after his wife, but torturing kip has renewed his will to live. He thanks kip for that. 

ch 106 pg 556

Gavin goes to the Chromeria heads and tells them what's what as far as the war effort is concerned. 

Ch 107 pg 558

Gavin is leading a group to destroy the green blight.  They go to Ru to see whats going on there.  Based on ship positions that the color prince already has the fort amd jes going to lure the Chromeria ships in with his weak middle and then destroy them with the guns from the fort.

but they're not here for that.  They use their greens sense to feel tje wrongness of green.  The y make it to where it feels as wrong as it has and they only see a handful of boats.  Gavin makes a realization that the blight is under water.  They attack the boats and the blight suffaces and its hella scary.

ch 108 pg 566

Ironfist's group is tasked with retaking the fort.  He takes Teia with him because she can use her xray vision to see through walls and tell if soldiers habe armor on under their cloaks.  They kill a bunch of dudes on the path up to the fort.

They get some resistance and some black guards get killed.  Teia is surrounded and is gonna get shot to death and then she kills all those guys with xrays.

They take over the cannons just in time to see the green blight emerge from the ocean.

Ch 109 pg 581

Liv is with the team thats sneaking into the city through a secret tunnel to I guess get the main doors open so the real army can attack for real.  It goes OK.  The city of Ru had a pyramid with a mirror thing at the top.thays controlled by ultraviolet luxin. Liv uses it to send green light to the green blight.  

She does this seeing that Gavin and Kip and Karris are down there trying to stop it.  She knows they're going to die, but it will be worth it if they can remake the world.

Ch 110 pg 592

Kip kills the green God with the blinding knife. Iron fist helps a bit with shooting cannons at the green tower as it tried to birth the green God.  Gavin and Karris are still alive.  

Ch 111 pg 610

Kips grandfather summons gavin.  Kip goes with. Somehow kip figures out that his grandfather is a red wight.  He goes to take off his glasses so Gavin can see.  Kips grandfather stabs kip.  Kip stabs his grandfather.  Kips grandfather man gets in on the fight and somehow Gavin ends up getting stabbed in the chest with the blinding knife and falls overboard.   Kip jumps in after him.

Ch 112 pg 616

Kip saves Gavin.  As much as you can save someone with a sword in their chest.  Who really saves them is gunner.  His ship finds them and pulls them up out of the water.  He also pulls the sword out of Gavin and he's still really alive.

Ch 113 pg 619

Liv and the color prince talk.  They have largely taken the city.  Further brutality and depravity will ensue until they fully control it.  The color prince thinks Zymun is dead because he knows at one point they took the point but then the Black guards took it back.  So he probably died in the fight.  Also he says he knows Gavin is dead.  What he really knows is that Gavin no longer has control over any powers and so Banes of every color will emerge.

He gives Liv a choker and says he has a true great purpose for her ultraviolet powers.

Ch 114 pg 620

I guess stabbing Gavin with the blinding knife stole the color from Gavin into Kip's grandfather. His eyes are back to normal.  No longer a wight.  He thinks he has 10 good years left.

I guess kip was thrown off of Gunner's ship as he washed up on the shore.  Zymun is there.  And he has news.  He is Gavin and Karris's child.  They're brothers.  Kip has a brother, how lovely. He has been communicating with Kip's grandfather.   

Ch 115 pg 623

Gavin is completely color blind.
