early life and family ali jaunpuri was born in the neighbourhood of mulla tola in jaunpur, north india on 12 june 1800. he is the 35th direct descendant of abu bakr, the first rashidun caliph. his father, abu ibrahim shaykh muhammad imam bakhsh was a student of shah abdul aziz, and his grandfather jarullah was also a shaykh. it is said that the name karamat was later prefixed to his name as people started to notice his karamat. from his own books, it can be seen that he used to refer to himself as simply ‘ali jaunpuri’ or ‘ali jaunpuri better known as karamat ali’. education jaunpuri's early education in arabic and persian began with his father, and he later started hadith studies and other islamic studies under qudratullahi rudlavi and ahmadullah anami. he studied reasoning with ahmadullah chiraiyakoti and was taught tajweed and qur'an by qari sayyid ibrahim al-madani and qari sayyid muhammad iskandar.

he was also taught calligraphy by hafiz abdul ghani to such a degree that it was said he could write al-ikhlas with the basmala on a piece of rice and leave space to write his name as well. apart from this, he also learned the martial arts and wrestling and the art of running sticks and knots from expert art teachers. at the age of eighteen, jaunpuri became interested in tasawwuf. after taking his father's permission, jaunpuri pledged bay'ah to sayyid ahmad of raebareli, who was the founder of the tariqah-e-muhammadiya movement. on the very first week of service, sayyid ahmad instructed him to get involved in the work of guidance and bestowed the khilafah (succession) letter with the spiritual genealogy through shah ismail dehlvi. activism in jaunpur his religious activities were spread across northern india in places like jaunpur, azamgarh, sultanpur, ghazipur and faizabad. at that time, there was no daytime adhan in jaunpur, it could only be heard with the rising and setting of the sun.

he reformed this un-islamic ritual and with great effort issued adhan in mosques. there were also concerns behind the management of the historic jama mosque, jaunpur. instead of adhan and prayers, the mosque was used for worldly gatherings like baraat, clubbing and marriage ceremonies regardless of religion. cattle were also tied in some parts of the jamia masjid. it continued for many years after until jaunpuri managed to re-establish the five daily prayers at the mosque. similarly, after jamia masjid jaunpur, he started a series of friday sermons which continued for many years after his death. due to his preaching efforts, attempts were made to kill him several times but he escaped due to his skill in martial arts. he also established madrasa hanafia and madrasat-ul-quran in jaunpur for the publication of religious knowledge. the first teacher of madrasa hanafia was abdul haleem farangi mohali (father of abdul hai lucknowi).

migration to bengal under sayyid ahmad's instruction in 1822, jaunpuri began preaching to the muslim masses in bengal and assam. he played an important role in arabic, urdu and islamic studies in the country. starting in calcutta, he travelled to various places including dhaka, mymensingh, dinajpur, faridpur, noakhali, chittagong, goalpara, dhubri, kamrup and rangpur. for most of karamat ali jaunpuri's career, he had to sail in bengal and assam for religious activities. for this reason, he established a travelling madrasa within a large boat. his students lived in the boat and jaunpuri used to bear their expenses and teach them there. political views long after his murshid's death in 1831, the tariqa-e-muhammadiya split into two with jaunpuri leading a non-military faction which came to be known as the taiyunis in 1867. the taiyunis considered cooperating with the british authorities as the more ideal option rather than rebelling.

karamat ali jaunpuri and the taiyunis were also opponents of haji shariatullah's faraizi movement which declared british india as a dar al-harb (house of war) and discarded the friday prayer and eid prayers. instead, he issued a fatwa declaring the colonised territory as a dar al-aman as the british government allowed freedom of religion. his fatwa was used by other muslim scholars as well as muslim modernists of the subcontinent like nawab abdul latif and later syed ahmad khan to justify their loyalty and cooperation to the british empire. during his lifetime, jaunpuri engaged in debate with the faraizis, most prominently abdul jabbar faraizi. the first debate regarding the friday prayer was held in barisal in 1867, and this was followed up by a debate in 1879 by his son hafiz ahmad jaunpuri in madaripur. over five thousand people attended the latter event and it was dubbed by nabinchandra sen as the battle of jumuʿah. personal life karamat ali jaunpuri married four times.

he first married a lady of jaunpur but she later died. he married two women in noakhali who also died during his lifetime. his fourth wife, originally from north india, settled in rangpur with him and outlived him. jaunpuri left behind hundreds of spiritual successors and 14 children. two of his sons, hafiz ahmad jaunpuri and abdul awwal jaunpuri gained prominence in bengal later on. death and legacy during his travels in rangpur in 1873, jaunpuri fell ill and subsequently died on 30 may. he was buried near the munshipara jame mosque in rangpur. works jaunpuri has written roughly 46 books. 19 of them were compiled into the three-volume zakhira-e-karamat book. the remaining works are scarce. air balloon was launched in 1784 at yarmouth as a coaster. she was captured in 1797. she then disappeared from united kingdom records until 1824. she was almost rebuilt in 1825, only to suffer a major maritime incident in 1826. she was refloated and resumed sailing, but was wrecked in 1829.

prior to the election, serbia's electoral laws were reformed such that the entire country was counted as a single electoral division and all mandates were awarded to candidates at the discretion of the sponsoring parties or coalitions, irrespective of numerical order. kesejić was given the twelfth position on the radical party's list and was given a mandate when the list won twenty-three seats. the democratic opposition of serbia (demokratska opozicija srbije, dos) won a landslide victory, and the radicals served in opposition. in june 2001, kesejić refused to leave the assembly after being sanctioned by speaker nataša mičić and was taken out by security. he suffered a medical situation in the process and had to be taken to hospital. he was given the fifty-fourth position on the radical party's list in the 2003 parliamentary election and was again given a mandate when the list won eighty-two seats.

the democratic party (demokratska stranka, ds) and its allies won the election, and kesejić served as a member of the opposition at this level as well. he was not a candidate for re-election in 2008. the radical party experienced a serious split in late 2008, with several members joining the more moderate serbian progressive party (srpska napredna stranka, sns) under the leadership of tomislav nikolić and aleksandar vučić. kesejić remained with the radicals. serbia's electoral laws were reformed in 2011, such that mandates were awarded in numerical order to candidates on successful lists. kesejić appeared in the fourteenth position on the srs's electoral list in the 2012 provincial election. weakened by the 2008 split, the party won only five mandates, and he was not returned. local politics serbia introduced the direct election of mayors in the 2004 local elections, and kesejić ran as the radical party's candidate in sombor.

he was defeated by jovan slavković of the democratic party in the second round of voting. he was elected to the municipal assembly, however, and served once again as an opposition member. in april 2007, kesejić led to the srs in holding a "parallel" meeting of the local assembly in the streets of sombor, due to a conflict over the municipality's credit indebtedness. later in the same year, he advocated for a motion that would have made russian president vladimir putin an honorary citizen of sombor. the motion was not approved by the assembly. the direct election of mayors proved to be a short-lived experiment and was abandoned with the 2008 serbian local elections. the ds narrowly defeated the srs in sombor in this cycle; slavković was included on the radical party's list and was again given a mandate for the sitting of the assembly that followed.

following the srs split and serbia's electoral reforms, he received the lead position on the radical list for sombor in the 2012 local elections and was re-elected when the list won four out of sixty-one mandates. he did not seek re-election in 2016. bernardo lemes (born 8 january 2002) is a brazilian professional footballer who plays as a defensive midfielder for coritiba. adelhamid skander (arabic: عبد الحميد اسكندر; born 13 may 1928) is an algerian former professional footballer who played as a left winger. west gateway marriott hotel () is a skyscraper building located in zhongzheng district, taipei, taiwan. topped out in 2021, the height of the building is , and it comprises 31 floors above ground. the building was originated designated as a marriott hotel, however due to the covid-19 pandemic, the tourism industry has been greatly affected. therefore, in 2020, the use of the skyscraper was changed to an office building instead.

he commissioned chouchan to create an event that would help publicize his winter sports business. chouchan suggested a fantastic film festival after witnessing the resort's eerie sightlines, which were influenced by organic architecture. daniel goldman, the head of cinema international corporation in france, was an early adherent to the project and helped procure screening rights to many american films. savvy promotion and strong corporate backing elevated the event to a level of relevance unheard of for a speciality film gathering, with ample news and talk show coverage on the home country's most watched channels. france inter set up a studio at the hotel des drômonts during the festival, and many national television talk shows were broadcast from the festival. tf1 was a presenting partner, while antenne 2 sponsored a special award, the golden antenna, sometimes in the same year. a 1990 survey found that the festival was known to 93% of the french public, second only to cannes.

style in comparison to the more traditional approach of the paris international festival of fantastic and science-fiction film, avoriaz made a concerted effort to distance itself from the genre's exploitation roots, with chouchan saying "we couldn't just have the upteenth film with vincent price or christopher lee [. . . ] there had to be a new fantastique. " from the beginning, brémond had promoted avoriaz by gifting all-inclusive holidays to popular singers and actors in exchange for publicity shots, and a similar practice was used for the festival itself. unlike sitges, avoriaz actively courted celebrity jurors with art or mainstream cinema credentials, which was as much an effort to legitimize the genre as it was a nudge to mass media. by chouchan's own retrospective admission, avoriaz was an image-conscious and exclusive affair, with few members of the public allowed within the festival's perimeter, although it was partly due to the resort's limited capacity.

this led to accusations of manufactured elitism from both special and general interest publications, such as the cahiers du cinema and l'express. lucio fulci, an italian director whose career straddled the line between mainstream and exploitation cinema, said: "[in paris] the public was really sympathetic, with a sweet smell of weed. [. . . ] whereas in avoriaz, it was very snobbish, many people didn't care about anything. " the inaugural grand prix, awarded to steven spielberg's duel in his first award win for a longform feature, did much to establish the festival' credibility when the director rose to international fame in the following years. spielberg would return in 1977 to serve as jury president, a position he would not accept again until the 2013 festival de cannes. while its palmares was generally regarded as being of a high quality, the event's overtures towards cinema auteurs sometimes exposed a gap between the films it showcased and the expectations of the cultural establishment it courted.

hollywood actress and avoriaz juror leslie caron expressed outrage at the texas chainsaw massacre, which made its belatted appearance at the 1976 festival due to censorship issues, calling it "beastly, vile and dehumanizing". the star-studded jury, which also included sergei bondarchuk, eugène ionesco, agnès varda, jacques tati, iannis xenakis and president michaelangelo antonioni, refused to award the grand prize that year on the basis on an excessively weak selection. the texas chainsaw massacre took the critics' prize. in 1985, popular actor michel blanc—who was a festival guest but not a jury member—publicly and repeatedly lambasted the terminator, calling it "a harrowingly dumb film". the film still won the grand prize and the french market ended up contributing a disproportionate amount to its worldwide gross.

segregation of genre and art films by the second half of the 1980s, brémond and chouchan were growing uneasy about fantastic cinema's increasingly graphic nature amidst the gore boom of the time, which put the event at odds with avoriaz's desired family friendly image and ushered in the first rumors of its demise. in response, the 1986 festival confined slasher and horror films to a minor, separate competition called the fear section. however, the distinction between films whose artistic merits were deemed worthy of the main competition and those that would be relegated to the fear section was unclear. for instance, the original hellraiser was consigned to the fear section, but when it proved successful, the second installment was accepted into the main bracket. furthermore, due to its restrictive niche, the fear section often had to be padded with the type of low budget horror fare the organizers were keen to avoid in the first place.

today the fear section is largely remembered for providing an outlet for some films from the dying days of italian genre cinema. most notably, michele soavi, one of the country's last internationally recognized genre directors, won his first award in the 1987 fear section for stage fright. in 1989, the festival added another award, the prix de l'étrange (approximately translating as "eeriness prize"), in order to further highlight atmospheric films over graphic ones. in 1990, the fear section was closed outright, and extreme cinema was limited to out-of-competition screenings. demise and relocation to gérardmer as the 1980s gave rise to bigger, high concept productions, the festival's handpicked juries of prestigious but subversion-prone auteurs clashed with the heightened commercial expectations such films generated, and strained its relationship with major distributors.

fox executives threatened a boycott when their two odds-on favorites, the fly and robocop were passed for top honors in 1986 and 1987 respectively, with le monde conceding that robocop probably would have won the grand prize, had its heavy advertising campaign not antagonized the jury headed by sidney lumet. while columbia tri-star provided the 1992 festival with its showpiece in the addams family, the film left empty handed, and the distributor refused to do the same the following year with the highly anticipated dracula. as the film was scheduled to open in france right after the festival, chouchan and brémond interpreted the decision as a deliberate snub. further highlighting the absence of coppola's film, that edition featured a dracula retrospective and christopher lee as president in the jury. festival executives subsequently complained that large distributors were now demanding award guarantees to enter their flagship films in the event, something they did not want to give.

avoriaz's rift with the majors necessited a return to smaller—and gorier—films, although there was an attempt to do so through the prism of dark comedies like the borrower, mutant action, army of darkness and braindead. brémond cites the appalled reaction of former prime minister michel rocard, whom he had invited to a screening of eventual 1993 grand prix winner braindead, and the failure of that film at the box office, as the final hint that the fantastic genre was not an appropriate vehicle for his real estate ventures anymore. the emergence of home video as the primary outlet for much of the independent genre production also meant that such films carried fewer chances of crossing over to the mainstream. following the 1993 edition, brémond pulled the plug on the event. as a more wholesome alternative, he launched the avoriaz french film festival the following year.

industry sources suggested that beyond his disenchantment with fantasy films, brémond may have been looking to attract more public subsidies and ingratiate himself to the french entertainment industry, as he was venturing into filmmaking with his new company marathon productions. ultimately, the french film festival underperformed and was shut down after just three years. for his part, chouchan took the original concept to the vosges resort of gérardmer and created a spiritual successor, the gérardmer international fantastic film festival, which still exists as of 2022. grand prix history in popular culture avoriaz, les fantômes du festival, a crime novel talking place during a fictionalized version of the festival, was written by author gilbert picard and published in france in 1990. the 2003–04 season was the 56th season in the existence of fc steaua bucurești and the club's 56th consecutive season in the top flight of romanian football.

he had requested this assignment as it was scheduled to go to bremerton [washington] for overhaul, which was close to home. along with two others from the west virginia he applied for and undertook flight training at pensacola naval air station in florida from september 1941 until 13 march 1942. world war ii after graduating from pensacola he was assigned to fly curtiss soc seagull observation seaplanes on the heavy cruiser on which he served in between 1942 and 1943. during activities in the aleutians he was able to escape being shot down in august 1942 by a nakajima rufe despite his aircraft being hit numerous times. duncan was promoted to the rank of lieutenant (junior grade) on 1 june 1942 and on 15 june 1942, he was promoted to lieutenant (temporary).

when the number of seaplanes assigned to the ship was reduced from four to two, creating a surplus of pilots duncan found himself allocated to flying a consolidated pby-5a catalina during which he undertook spotting duties during the bombardment of munda in the solomon islands. he caught malaria which he later expressed gratitude for as he was sent back to the united states, where he undertook operational training on grumman f4f wildcats in florida to transition to fighters. following his graduation in mid-1943 he was assigned to the newly created fighter squadron vf-15 which was commissioned under the command of david mccampbell in atlantic city on 1 september 1943. campbell had not flown for three years by the time he was given command of vf-15 and had trouble with his shooting skills. pilots had to qualify in gunnery with a 10 percent score firing at a sleeve between towed behind another aircraft. in the best of two attempts, campbell had scored only 8 percent.

determined that he should remain their commander duncan and john robert strane, each made sure on the third flight that their bullets were painted the same color as mccampbell's, which ensured that a score of 15 percent was obtained by their commander. it didn't take mccampbell long to realizing what had happened. he subsequently ordered that every pilot undergo more frequent gunnery training. issued with grumman f6f hellcats the squadron was initially assigned to the but following the completion of the carrier's shakedown cruise it was reassigned (along with duncan) to the in may 1944. duncan was promoted to lieutenant commander (temporary) 15 march 1944. on the 15 june 1944 duncan shot down his first japanese aircraft, a mitsubishi zero near iwo jima. on 19 june during the "marianas turkey shoot" component of the battle of the philippine sea, duncan shot down three more zeros.

” the test division's evaluation was that the underpowered aircraft was unacceptable for operational use, with naval aviators disparagingly calling the aircraft the "groundhog". among the other aircraft that he flew while at patuxent was the vought f7u cutlass, douglas f3d skyknight, douglas f4d skyray and mcdonnell f3h demon on 1 june 1949, he was first promoted to the permanent rank of lieutenant commander and then to the permanent rank of commander. upon completion of his test pilot training he remained at patuxent flight testing until 1952. crash on the uss midway in june 1951 he was engaged in conducting suitability trials of the new grumman f9f panther buno 125228. the aircraft had been hoisted aboard the on the at norfolk, virginia and carried out into the atlantic ocean off the virginia capes. uss midway (cv-41). there, duncan and his plane were catapulted, and trapped by the carrier without any problems.

the force of the impact forced off duncan's helmet and threw lose the cockpit canopy, leaving him little protection. sailors were able to pull duncan from the wreckage and convey him to the sickbay. he was burned by the fire and his ears were badly scorched, but he was able to return to flying duties six months later. however it took a year before with the assistance of plastic surgery that his injuries were completely healed. footage of duncan's crash was captured as nearly every landing on an aircraft carrier was filmed, for educational and safety purposes. korea duncan then returned to normal duty. serving two tours in the korean war, both with vf-51 during its deployment aboard the essex-class aircraft carrier , the second as its commanding officer. he then went on to commanded fighter squadron vf-101, and later was commander air group carrier air group 5 (cvg-5).

he then joined yale university's biochemistry department, rising to the position of professor in 1950. career wilhelmi chaired the department of biochemistry at emory university school of medicine from 1950 to 1977. in 1960, he was named charles howard candler professor of biochemistry. in 1979, he received emory's thomas jefferson award for service to the university and community. wilhelmi also was president of the endocrine society from 1968 to 1969. during his career, he published over 80 articles in scientific journals. the human growth hormone, creutzfeld jakob disease controversy wilhelmi was an important researcher involved in harnessing human grown hormone from cadavers in the 1960s and 1970s. early studies conducted in 1958 by maurice raben at tufts university school of medicine showed it was possible to cause children with pituitary dwarfism to grow by injecting them with human growth hormone.

in 1961, the national institutes of health (nih) formed the national pituitary agency to organize collection and redistribution of human endocrine glands to three universities for processing into growth hormone: emory university, tufts university and cornell university. for the first 14 of these years, wilhelmi supervised the emory laboratory, which was the largest seat of hormone production. in 1985, however, two patients who previously had received the exogenous hormone treatment died in the united states. that caused the nih to suspend the human growth hormone program and launch an investigation. the deaths were attributed to creutzfeldt–jakob disease (cjd) transmitted by impurities in the hormone injected into the patients years earlier using the wilhelmi protocol. as of 2000, there had been 22 cjd deaths among american recipients of unfiltered hormone prior to 1977.

he afterwards served on board admiral vernon's fleet, by some accounts as a naval surgeon, and by others as surgeon of one of the marine regiments subsequently disbanded. after spending five years in the west indies and america he returned home in ill-health in 1745. in may 1746 he obtained an ensigncy in the 42nd highlanders, then commanded by lord john murray, with which corps he served in the unsuccessful descent on the french coast near l'orient in september the same year. after wintering with his regiment at limerick, he accompanied it to the low countries, where it was first engaged at sandberg, near hulst, in dutch flanders, in april 1747. a military sketch of this affair, and another of the defences of bergen-op-zoom, drawn by him, having been submitted by lord john murray to the duke of cumberland, bisset was ordered to the latter fortress to prepare reports of the progress of the siege.

for his brave and skilful performance of this duty he was recommended by the duke of cumberland for the post of engineer-extraordinary in the brigade of engineers attached to the army, in which capacity he served with credit during the remainder of the war. at the peace of 1748 the engineer brigade was broken up, and bisset was placed on half-pay as a lieutenant of the reduced additional companies of lord john murray's highlanders, under which heading his name appeared in the annual army lists up to his death. after travelling in france he published his theory and construction of fortifications, with plans, 4to (london, 1751). he subsequently reverted to the medical profession, and went into practice at the village of skelton, near cleveland, yorkshire, where he continued during the rest of his life.

when war threatened in 1755, he published his treatise on scurvy, with remarks on scorbutic ulcers, 8vo (dedicated to the lords of the admiralty); and in 1762 he brought out an essay on the medical constitution of great britain, to which is added observations on the weather and the diseases which appeared during the period from 1st january 1758 to the summer solstice of 1760. together with an account of the throat distemper and miliary fever which were epidemic in 1760 (london, 8vo). this work, to which was also appended a paper on the properties of bearsfoot (hellebore) as a vermifuge, was translated into german by j. g. moeller (breslau, 1779). in 1766 the university of st. andrews conferred on bisset the degree of doctor of medicine, and the same year he published medical essays and observations (newcastle-on-tyne, 8vo), of which a german translation by moeller was published in 1781, and an italian one about 1790.

bisset wrote several minor works on medical subjects, and is stated to have likewise published a small treatise on naval tactics and some political essays. a manuscript treatise by him on permanent and temporary fortifications and the attack and defence of temporary defensive works, which is dedicated to george, prince of wales, and dated 1778, is preserved in the british library. bisset presented to the leeds infirmary a manuscript of observations for his medical constitution of great britain, extending over 700 pages, all traces of which are now lost according to the leeds philosophical society. a copy of cullen's first first of practice of physic, with numerous manuscript notes by him, is preserved in the library of the london medical society. an interesting medical correspondence between bisset and lettsom is published in pettigrew’s memoirs and correspondence of dr. lettsom.

it is preceded by too like the lightning (2016) and seven surrenders (2017). it is followed by perhaps the stars (2021). set in the year 2454, the earth of the terra ignota quartet has seen several centuries of near-total peace and prosperity, but is preparing to go to war. the will to battle presents itself as a chronicle of those global escalations and preparations. it is narrated by self-confessed unreliable narrator mycroft canner, a brilliant, infamous, and paroled criminal who often serves the world's most powerful leaders. setting advanced technology has led to the advent of a near-utopian golden age. however, the tensions among political groups, such as over distribution of land, population, and income, has escalated into preparations for a global war. though there were initially seven hives, they have each shifted into new governance systems or collapsed. the will to battle takes place over a much longer timespan than the previous two books combined.

the events occur between april 8 and september 6, 2454, and were written between july 6 and september 14, 2454. gendered language by default, almost all characters use gender-neutral language, with "they/them" the predominant pronoun used. mycroft, the primary narrator, finds his world's obsession with gender-neutrality oppressive, so often uses gendered pronouns to refer to other characters, assigning genders based on the characters' personalities and roles, as they relate to traditional western gender roles. for instance, chagatai is referred to using "she/her" pronouns because of their fierce, lioness-like strength when protecting their nephew from attack. the author has explained that mycroft frequently "misuses" gendered pronouns, just as people in real life often make mistakes when using gender-neutral pronouns. also, in its chapter at the start of seven surrenders, sniper advises the reader to not "trust the gendered pronouns mycroft gives people, they all come from madame".

mycroft sometimes varies the gendered pronouns he gives characters. for instance, carlyle is mostly referred to using she/her pronouns starting with seven surrenders, whereas in the first book carlyle is referred to with he/him pronouns. style the "history" of the first two books were written for contemporaneous public release; this volume has been written for posterity. thus it is ostensibly less closely edited by the ninth anonymous (9a). this is marked by several stylistic changes, including the presentation of more conversations as simple dialogues, as if in a script. the ninth anonymous, mycroft's apprentice, narrates the final chapter. the novels make frequent direct addresses to a "reader", inspired by eighteenth-century literature. however, the reader is not the actual reader of the book, but an imagined in-universe reader whom mycroft supposes is either his contemporary or someone in his future.

mycroft's sanity is waning and throughout the text he has numerous dialogues with deceased friends, such as several of the mardi bash', thomas hobbes, the reader, and sometimes conversations among these. plot april ten days after the events of seven surrenders, newly elected humanist president vivien ancelet visits ockham, now prospero, saneer in prison. they discuss the legal details of o. s. and plan for prospero to plea terra ignota: uncertainty over whether or not the o. s. assassinations were a crime. achilles, transformed from the toy known as the major into a human by bridger's suicide, helps world leaders prepare for war, stockpiling food and increasing medical facilities so that the upcoming war is as humane as it can be. mycroft and saladin even recruit black market traders to keep supplies flowing to civilians if mainstream channels fail.

at a second emergency session of the universal free alliance senate, urgent matters are chaotically negotiated: su-hyeon ancelet-kosala is confirmed as official censor. the sensayers' conclave is ordered to address the global theological crisis caused by j. e. d. d. mason's resurrection. lorelai "cookie" cook re-proposes the eighth "black" law, banning the development of set-sets and other brainwashing practices like those at madame's. it is deferred to the next session. the blacklaws call for sniper's death, but the motion is deferred to the next session. the deputy commissioner general asks whether the court should accept or reject ockham prospero saneer's petition for a terra ignota trial. during the debate, humanist hero-senator aesop quarriman pins a bull's eye symbol to her chest as though to say, if killing me would help the planet, do it. achilles, watching with mycroft and the services, notes that the bull's eye symbol marks the moment when sides in the conflict take clear shape.

over a hundred thousand servicers choose to swear loyalty to achilles and begin military training as myrmidons. the next day, julia doria-pamphili and j. e. d. d. mason go to the sensayers' conclave. a sensayer attempts to kill j. e. d. d. mason but is prevented by utopians wearing apollo's delian sun symbol, signaling their readiness for conflict. dominic and madame kidnap mycroft to lure sniper. an unknown assailant attempts to kill mycroft. sniper and tully rescue him. the war almost breaks out when all humanists are indicted on o. s. -related charges. j. e. d. d. mason and sniper negotiate to cool things down and give both sides more time to prepare and reduce the danger of the war to come. cornel mason and king isabel of spain come to conflict over j. e. d. d. mason's possible succession to europe's monarchy. the cousins and greenpeace faction of the mitsubishi form an alliance to lessen war's impact.

's next action. j. e. d. d.

mason goes back to the rostra in romanova and declares that as his enemies predicted, he intends to takeover and re-make global system to build a version that does not need the o. s. assassinations to maintain peace. however, he proposes that all sides wait until the end of the forthcoming olympic games, as was the tradition in ancient greece. a statement attributed to sniper agrees. j. e. d. d. mason, mycroft, and achilles meet aesop and papa during a visit to antarctica's capital esperanza city. throughout the visit, mycroft receives calls from leaders both alive and dead. the group meets with lesley, disguised and ghostwriting as sniper because it has been missing since the it and tully rescued mycroft. lesley gets j. e. d. d. mason to agree to search for and free sniper, because if it does not compete in the olympics it would break the truce. back at madame's nunnery in burgos, j. e. d. d.

august and september the hive and hiveless leaders, sans madame, are called to romanova by the utopians. faust mentions that cornel and achilles are having an affair. the utopians, represented by huxley mojave, announce that in order to prevent the destruction of the planet, they have destroyed all facilities capable of creating harbingers, weapons capable of great destruction, including viral laboratories and nuclear facilities. they have also kidnapped all people with the knowledge of how to create them, except cato weeksbooth. as this affects all other hives, they offer reparations in the form of assets and intellectual property. furthermore, they give the hives the means to spy on each other to ensure that no further harbingers are created. they know this will turn the hives against them, but judge the risk worth saving all life on earth. all begin racing to capture cato at klamath marsh secure hospital. martin tries to set another trap with mycroft as bait, but is double-crossed.
