Renfrew, Devil Tarot card--fill in,  Robin---taking in "Waltzing in Whitechapel" sees
"his fellow Archduke-minder" now a Landwehr Colonel.....'grown more mineral'---
[less human, more inanimate] 
 
Devil card interpretation from wikipedia: 
The Devil is the card of self-bondage to an idea or belief which is preventing us from growing—an example could include believing that getting drunk each night is good for you. On the other hand, however, it can also be a warning to someone who is too restrained and/or dispassionate and never allows him or herself to be rash or wild or ambitious, which is yet another form of enslavement.
 
P.S. on  Kai's last post..."second-order observers".........p. 680 "It's an actor playing
an actor playing jack"......Nigel sorta wants first order jack up there ripping.........
Neville says it is all artificial 'including the blood everyone's come for"........
Is such bloodlust a part of polite society--in AtDs vision?
