(scroll down and take a peek at some of the photos)

872. 14   "So I am, Theign, I'm haunting you."    (more ghosts of  
revenge or invisibility or something)

872.19  "lazy sod!"   lazy Sodomite?

872.23 - 25    "... a dream in which Yashmeen betrayed him, again and  
again, to some apparatus known, for the purposes of the dream as  
"Austria."  But even in the dream he knew it could not be that.  He  
woke imagining that the true name had been revealed, but that the  
shock of waking had dislodged it from his mind."

*  Yashmeen betrays Cyprian with an ally (generically speaking),   
Vlado?  Or Reef?

872.31  Giacomuzzi -   ?

872.28 -  the assassination will take place that night
872.29 -  "the Prince said, with a smile whose bleakness had more to  
do with inconvenience than regret."
*       the word  "inconvenience" stands out but is probably  
happenstance,  not meaningfully related to the Chums


872.35   Altezza -   Your Highness
