Chekhov's Gun: Blind Zainab curses General Zia to be eaten alive by worms when she hears that she is being moved to a solitary confinement at another prison. A fairly straightforward curse, nobody comments on it, except the writer, who mentions in passing that curses only work when spoken to crows with filled stomach. Zainab has just fed a crow, who flies off and out of the story, reappearing only at the end of the book to be involved in two separate attempts to kill Zia. | |

Body Horror: Plenty to spare. In particular, General Zia suffers from a rampant endoparasite infection at the end of the book, leaking blood from his rear orifice as he walks. | |

Blind Seer: Blind Zainab, despite nobody — including here — realizing that she's coincidentally done this. | |
