Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Ty and Gemma stand by the elevator in the Trade Station. He tries to convince her to stay away from the saloon and watch the prospectors that go inside, but she points out that there are men already in the saloon that she would not see that way.
As a man leaves the elevator, Gemma bumps into him so she can pickpocket him for his adult ID card. When she makes it clear she is going to the saloon no matter what, Ty insists she needs to be smart about it. He drags her to the lost and found and they outfit her to look like a boy. Ty realizes they need to hide her breasts to avoid leers from the men inside, so he goes to find bandages.
Ty goes to Doc’s office to find bandages, despite his anxiety around medical supplies. Ty finds an article describing Dark Gifts. Doc returns to the office and does not question Ty about why he needs bandages. When Ty asks about the article, Doc says when he was assigned to Benthic Territory, he pulled up every article he could find to learn about the territory.
Before Ty leaves, Doc shows him the missing child notice out for Gemma, saying she had stolen money from the home.
