Skin Hunger: A Resurrection of Magic Chapter 34 Summary

  • After a class with Franklin, Hahp finally figures out how Gerrard and the others are keeping track of the confusing turns in the caverns: they're making up nonsense rhymes using words that start with l and r to keep track of the lefts and rights.
  • In the room with the stone, Gerrard and Hahp have their longest conversation to date: Gerrard confesses that he never had a toy, so he can't imagine one fully enough to manifest magically.
  • Hahp asks Gerrard what the best meal he ever had was. It was a bowl of fish stew that a rich lady had bought him.
  • Hahp tells Gerrard to imagine it while touching the stone. It works, and Gerrard wolfs down the stew after Hahp makes a spoon for him to eat with.
  • But then Somiss appears and glares at them, and Gerrard says that he knows that Hahp helped him, since how would a poor kid from the streets know how to make a beautiful silver spoon appear?
