World's Most Beautiful Woman | |

World's Most Beautiful Woman: Maggie Jenn in her heyday. Even as a middle aged mother, she is easily one of the loveliest creatures that Garrett has ever seen. | |

Draft Dodging | |
| Deadly Quicksilver Lies / int_486b0458 | comment |
Draft Dodging: A royal bureaucrat turns up looking for the Rainmaker, who's not on record as having served his five years in the Cantard. For a good reason: Grange "the Rainmaker" Cleaver was the alternate identity of Maggie Jenn, and women aren't subject to Karentine military conscription unless they're sorcerers. | |

Planet of Steves | |
| Deadly Quicksilver Lies / int_48d87e94 | comment |
Planet of Steves: The main reason Garrett didn't like No Ravens Went Hungry, the historical trilogy of books from Deadly Quicksilver Lies, was that far too many of its characters had virtually-identical names. | |

| Deadly Quicksilver Lies / int_4e3d253b | comment |
Downer Ending: Garrett ends up killing Maggie Jenn, assuming she's actually the Rainmaker. She is but also in love with him. The treasure was lost long ago. Oh and human supremacists are slowly taking over the country. | |

Gambit Roulette: Multiple parties are looking for old books that contain the secret of the Eagle's treasure that they think Garrett might possess. This includes attempting to befriend, betray, or eliminate Garrett without him knowing why. The Eagle's treasure was lost at sea. | |
