There was a policeman, new man, kept a suspiciously close eye on me but they didn't lock me in a cellar, chain me, beat me or starve me so it was better than most prisons I've been to. Boring. I had a lot of time to think.
I'm paying the bills, which will require a job, which I suspect is going to be difficult given my newly aquired criminal record but nevertheless.
That last bit, at least, I knew. Lyra came to see me at some point, just briefly, and I quizzed a few guards. From what I hear he stepped up and took it and the only resistance is some mild grumbling. The non-fictionals seem to think he's amazing. Announcing oneself as a leader is a sound move, and he's backed well, but he's been greedy. Pushed for too much too fast. Someone came to 'register' my 'powers' - not that I have any. If he has that much authority over Babylon already... well, it's likely this could develop into a dictatorship, in which case a revolution is inevitable.
