Summary
Never before have I seen a landscape as fantastical and as monotonous as the Gobrin Ice. If someone were to view it from above, it would be as blank as a sheet of paper, the crevasses and cracks mere hairline fractures, myself and Estraven nothing but pinpoints in an otherwise empty space.
Genly and Therem talk about unfamiliar places and things.

Summary
He was done for anyways, and it felt like the universe was just kicking him while he was down. If it was as simple as a blaster to the head would’ve been, an end like that would’ve been preferable to the slow, drawn-out suffering of starving out in the middle of space, in an area so empty that he could see the same thing whether he was looking out the window or at the backs of his eyelids.

Summary
So it is written, and so it shall be: the legend of the DELTA RUNE.
...but, uh, wait, what exactly does that legend mean, again?
It had been a week since the Church's fountain had been sealed, but nothing new was happening. It seemed as though the true machinations of the Prophecy— the Knight, the bunker, the fate of the world— might be lost permanently in the dark. Had the inevitable been prevented, or was it just beginning to unfurl?
Most seemed content to forget-- but Susie wasn't most.

Summary
Nicholas Holiday is despondent. He has sat in bed for hours and hours, on the verge of rotting away. This is typical of him, but it doesn't make his mother any more approving of it. But his sister, December, imagines that he doesn't just act like this out of laziness or ennui. She's going to figure out what's hurting him.
Noelle Holiday comes out, experiences loss, gets really fucked up generally, transitions, gets abused, lives through Weird Route, and maybe has the kind of happy ending she actually deserves?

Summary
if Kris has learned anything the past few days, with that tiresome TV World, it’s that they do not appreciate constant reminders that their family will never be whole again.
And to top it all off, they can’t get any damn sleep anymore.
They toss and they turn, they bury their head in their pillow, they grab a pair of Azzy’s old wired headphones to block off the noise, but it’s no use. No matter what they do they can still hear the music, and their mother, and that damned little store clerk their mom finds so charming. This house is a nightmare.
Suddenly, they recall a memory and hear the tender voice of Ralsei.
“Umm, I’d be happy if this place… Could be like a second home to you. A place you can go to no matter what’s happening outside”.
or, a collection of stories inside the walls of Castle Town.
