Content warning for graphic violence and medical mention

So that's it then? Stanislaw’s betrayal has reached its peak, my name as Dragomir’s daughter has spread beyond his cloistered few, and Ksana…

But how do these pieces all fit together? Why does Stanislaw hate Dragomir so much, when they are not father and son? What is Nico and this faceless Hans’ role in the Errol hierarchy? What is Stanislaw's? Something tells me he is not as integrated in the family politics as he claims he is, or he would not have needed our help to steal the journal.

Because he very clearly couldn't do it on his own. We were a cover, to be sure, but if he had the support of the family he could have made his own cover. He could have become integrated in the society of the Delta the way Dragomir has.

He might not play at politics very well, but he can play on people. He got us to cover his weak points. And I, who never trusted anything for so long because it meant the difference between survival or death, didn't even blink twice.
