Part 4: “A Crescendo for Dreams”

Part 4, Chapter 40 Summary: “Come Up for Air”

The courtyard explodes, but the blast spares Roman. When Roman will not comply with Bruce by leaving, Bruce knocks him out with his revolver. Roman wakes up in a vehicle headed for the Kitt Estate. Bruce admits to being part of the Graveyard and says that Roman’s father has supplied the group with explosives to kill Dacre. However, Roman’s failure to deliver Shane’s message about beheading the god prevented them from doing this. An unharmed Dacre swiftly returns to the Kitt Estate and orders all his officers and soldiers to line up in the hall. He gives the traitor among them an opportunity to confess; if they do not, Dacre will torture them. Roman dissuades Dacre from such tactics by assuring him that they are all faithful servants and must not waste time that they could be using to strategize next steps. When Roman meets Dacre in the study afterward, he notices Captain Landis’s key—now bloodstained from his gruesome death in the courtyard—on the desk. Dacre instructs Roman to write a letter to Iris Winnow.

Part 4, Chapter 41 Summary: “Conversations With a Figment”

Due to a kind bystander who tackled Iris to the ground and shielded her from the blast, Iris survives and flees the scene. To escape the Graveyard hunting past curfew, Iris seeks shelter in the museum, where a female guard finds her and tends to her wounds.
