A recruitment drive, an underground fight club, and an Empress unleashed.

Kirian is still the only student at the Institute. Baba Yaga orders Lerr’ek to change that—yesterday.

Lerr’ek has no clue how to find others worthy of the opportunity the Institute offers. Luckily for him, Kirian has a suggestion and Operation First Class commences.

What can he do when his offer is rejected?

Lerr’ek isn’t the type to give up at the first obstacle. He digs deeper into the circumstances that brought about the founding of the Institute to locate other potential recruits.

What he discovers causes Baba Yaga to rain vengeance on High Tortuga’s underground.

As above, so below. The changes Stephen is working for on the surface of the city are mirrored in the undercity as Baba Yaga dismantles the culture of violence festering at the heart of Shrillexian society by force.

Kirian comes face to face with his demons when new recruits are identified in the wake of the upheaval wreaked by the Witch.

Can the past be forgiven for the sake of the future? Or will Baba Yaga’s solution tear apart more than the fabric of society?
