“Spook smiled. "Elend is a forgetful scholar - twice as bad as Sazed ever was. He gets lost in his books and forgets about meeting he himself called. He only dresses with any sense of fashion because a Terriswoman bought him a new wardrobe.

What if their money was really just playground marbles, their business deals no more than baseball-card trades, their wars only games of guns in the park?
