the blood mirror ch 28 - 54

Ch 28
Karris is doing execution. But she doesn't execute what's his face that tried to kill kip.  She kills the guy that gave him the order to kill kip.  She does it with mirrors and sunlight.  Kinda like killing him with a laser.  

Ch 29
Kip isn't a young man anymore.   Marriage has prematurely aged him.  He kisses his wife before he goes into battle.  There's also a magic the gathering card moment where he remembers a time when one of his ancestors had to marry his lovers daughter.

Ch 30
Karris doesn't kill Quentin like she should.  She makes him her slave instead. She kills another guy with the death ray and he turns himself into a three headed dog in the midst of it.   Pretty cool.

Ch 31

LIV!!!!!!!

She has the seed and she can feel its power.  She's more powerful than any other ultra violet in the world as she is now.  But she's no god. She has to break the halo before she can absorb the seed fully and become a God.  It's a painful process.  But she comes out the other side unharmed.  She can feel her connection to the world now.  Very specifically she can feel a magical creature and she knows she can control it.  

Also, a man appears and says he's her slave.

Ch 32
Kip and his jackbooted thugs attack the glorious rebels.  They largely find success but then there's a cannon and other explosions and 250 slaves Kip is gonna try to save.  Not that there's any point.  Life sucks under the boot of the cromeria.  It sucks even worse with the rebels.

Ch 33

Gavin is escaping.  We think he might really do it, but then Andross is there waiting for him.

Ch 34
One of the female black guards tells tiea all of her feelings.  Main takeaway I have here is that the black guards know that zymon is a piece of shit.

Ch 35
Kip saves most of the slaves on the sinking ship.  They're gonna go spread word if how great Kip is. 

Ch 36
Karris and teia talk about marissa being abducted by the broken eye and lips escape and what not.  Karris tells her Teia needs to destroy the broken eye by any means necessary. She's already written out a pardon letter for any crimes she need to commit towards that end.

Ch 37

Kip and the boys drink and ne marry for tomorrow we may die.
Tisis gives kip oral pleasure.

Ch 38
Kips grandpa kicks the shit out of Gavin and then throws him down into the yellow prison with his dead brother's body.

Ch 39

Kip and tisis talk about how they haven't had sex.  Kip wants to stop trying.  Tisis says they have to have a baby before their marriage will matter.

Ch 40
Kips grandpa and Zymons mom talk about the cerberus and how he was an evil god and they're not just fighting the color prince, who's Zymon's uncle but that doesn't seem to matter, but also these evil gods.  They also talk about there being multiple worlds that orlham made and how the gods can't be at more than one place at a time so maybe this fight is a small part in a greater war against Orlham and there's a lot of scary unknown.

.ch 41

LIV!!!!!!

The blue god tracks her down and they talk.  Liv tells her where she can find the body of her mortal love.  Liv goes back to her home town and Kips house.  She uses his left behind scent to send him a message.

Ch 42

Kip kinda gets the message.  But he doesn't seem to understand who it's from or what it in.

Ch 43

Tiea talks to murder sharp.  He's gotta go kill the seer so he'll be gone for a while.  The old man, who we know is Grinwoody and iron fists uncle, will handle her now.  If she meets him face to face that's gonna be an interesting conversation. 

Ch 44 pg 319
Kip kills a red eight with help from card memories. 

Ch 45 pg 327
Gavin is having a conversation with his imaginary friend. What we learn is that dazen did kill gavin long ago and this whole prison thing is just his madness.  His dad comes down to tell him he loves him and that yes going to start sending down bread again.  One of them will be poisoned so have fun with that.

Ch 46 pg 337
Lots of stuff about will casting.  Where you use magic to control animals. Or even people and that's why its forbidden by the chromeria.  Kip makes a speech and it goes well and he's added the hidden forest people to his army.

Ch 47 pg 351

Teia tortures a slave with pyryl to learn how to do pyryl stuff cause murder Sharpe commanded it and she figures if she doesn't do it, the broken eye will kill her

Ch 48 pg 357
Kips wife didn't tell kip about the will casters and he's angry and tells at her and sleeps alone.  When he wakes up in the morning there's green soldiers and  he figures his sister in law sent them to kill them.

Ch 49 pg 361
Gavin and his evil reflection talk.  One cutting comment it makes is that he could be with karris if he weren't such a coward.

Ch 50
Karris meets with her brother.  He wants a ciese fire till spring so fall and winter harvest can occur.  She's all, fuck you, I'm gonna find you and I'm gonna kill you.

Ch 51 pg 371

Tsisisis`s cousin tells her what's up.  His mom wants to side with karris's brother.  But they talk and cousin pledges himself to kip.

Ch 52 pg 379
The broken eye wants to send teia to kill people.  Karris has a plan to use this to her advantage. 

Ch 53
Gavin gets sick of the daily process of trying to figure out what food is poisoned and not eating it.  He eats both loaves of bread.   Perhaps he will die.

Ch 54

Tiea goes with a diplomat to paria to convince them to join the war effort.  Also she had the assassination mission from the broken eye.  The diplomat delivers the whites message and its pretty much join us or.die cause we will kill you.  Tiea doesn't do the murder she's supposed to.do.
