Chapter 63: On the Mend

This chapter begins with Frank recovering from a bullet wound following a 1911 battle in the Mexican revolution. Stray shows up in the hospital set up in a church, as she is negotiating a prisoner exchange with the Federales. It turns out the prisoner she gets released is Ewball Oust, Franks anarchist buddy and fellow arms merchant. Ewball and Stray are something of an item.

Frank himself has a brief romance with Wren Provenance, the girl anthropologist.

There is a hallucinogenic dream of Aztlan, the legendary ancestral home of the Mexican people and Aztec ghosts.
