• Lina uses the cover of darkness to escape and heads for the roof, foiling the guards who believe she has left the hall at ground level.

• Doon leaves his hiding spot at Ember School, believing it best to head for the Pipeworks despite not knowing Lina’s whereabouts.

• The river rages, and the boat rocks violently, but soon the current slows, and Doon is able to light candles.
