Summary

Everything unfolds at one site, the Insect Sanctuary, the lone setting attached to this part of the tale. Suho's time inside leans toward broadening his reach as a shadow wielder rather than toward any sprawling battle, so the weight of the arc rests on what he walks away with by the end.

Aftermath

Two gains define Suho's exit. First, he learns Shadow Preservation, a skill that lets him keep beaten enemies on as soldiers. Second, from the corpse of Lee Minsung he raises a shadow named Kwei, slotting yet another recruit into the army steadily massing under his control.
