Necessity’s Child – Chapter 8

In which there’s been some excitement in the warehouse district.

This is one of those chapters that it’s more difficult to talk about because this is a re-read. I could speculate about what these events mean, or about who Silain’s patient is (Liaden, warehouse district, …) but it wouldn’t really work since of course I already know the answers.

I notice that there’s a person named Jin helping one healing effort and a person named Gin directing the other. I don’t suppose that means anything; there are only so many short names to go around. (As evidence of which, this is the second person known only as “Gin” in the series so far; the first was a merc on the front line on Lytaxin, so probably not the same person.)
