Chapter 26 (3): Advance
So, um, it seems like the Watch is actually a significant force. Do you think that's why no one really messes with the Duchy other than that time Grem messed with the Duchy?

-
149

Ranker is a nasty little thing, but then we meet Kegan who is a nasty little thing. It's a good chapter.

141
Chapter 22 (3): Govern
Governing, it would seem based on this chapter, is the art of letting other people govern while you go meet yet other people where they are governing. Truly a delicate practice.

Chapter 20 (3): Skew
Isn't a SKU like some kinda think when shopping? I'm gonna check it out, maybe we'll all learn something.I did research. It's a Stock Keeping Unit, so it's like a barcode. It's prolly relevant to this chapter because money has serial numbers and it's kinda about the treasury. Cool stuff!

Chapter 18 (3): Crack
It's only fair to assume that the title is a reference to John Darnielle's hit song "Sudden Oak Death" wherein the lyric When the crack sounds in the woods, you will know that I'm down for good. Because this is the chapter where Catherine's pair a' more is down for good. This is the kind of intertextuality you can only get on PGTEE.

Chapter 16 (3): Shambles
I'll be real: it sounds very wrong to me to say "a shambles." It's "in shambles." This is another big L for the Brits, who are also wrong about The Magna Carta. "There's no 'the' in Latin!" Yeah, so? That's not how languages work. Do you not say "the" Kremlin? Grow up.

Villainous Interlude: Stormfront
A short king, a shorter king, and the Bard's thing
-
133
Extra Chapter: Raid
Now goblins are cruel, wicked, and bad-hearted. They make no beautiful things, but they make many clever ones. They can tunnel and mine as well as any but the most skilled dwarves, when they take the trouble, though they are usually untidy and dirty.
