Well: Thread Tracker
@ Palamedes arrives in Well and begins to get his bearings.
@ While mapping Well’s strange sights, Palamedes comes across Ahsoka, who appears to have extraordinary powers. Perhaps she isn’t the only one?
@ Pal follows the mystery lights into the desert, where he encounters Yuri. The two of them barely escape with their lives (and get to know each other in the process.)
@ Pal meets a strange, and strangely familiar, girl in a dried-up swimming pool and discovers some extraordinary details about his past.
@ Turns out, sometimes card games are better when you’re a math genius. Horatio and Pal meet and quickly hit it off.
@ At the first hoedown, Palamedes sees Camilla Hect’s face on the dance floor and strikes up the beginnings of a research partnership with Cecelia.
@ Pal attempts to go on a run with Flynn. The run goes about as well as one would expect, but a friendship is born all the same.

@ Pal and Yuri try to make sense of the wanted posters that have appeared all over town.
@ Jailbreak! Pal and Flynn run from the prison and straight into their memories, discovering some unsettling facts about their respective pasts.
@ Pal wanders into another strange memory, this time in a haunted house.
Time for a creepy pool party!
@ Early the day, Pal celebrates Nona’s birthday.
@ But as day turns to night, he grows more unsettled by the fact that they are being held prisoner. He and Yuri try to escape the courtyard, to no avail.

Palamedes remembers his death.
@ Freed from his grave, Doublemedes makes a great impression on the populace. He stares down Bruce Wayne, banters with Yuri’s double, and freaks the hell out of Flynn.

@ With Mollymauk's help, Pal defeats his double. This time.
@ In the final days of April, as the Staywell falls around them, Palamedes looks for his friends, begins to fear that Nona has vanished, and meets a dragon.

The Staywell has a second hoedown with both stark similarities and unexpected differences to the first one.

As a new year begins, Camilla Hect turns into a statue.
As the town of Wellstone becomes increasingly impassable, two doubles are found dead in the Staywell lobby. Palamedes investigates the bloody crime scene with:

@ Pal checks on Alec to see how he is doing after his double’s violent death, and teen accidentally gets Pal thinking about doubles in a new way.

@ Just when he thinks things can’t get any worse, Palamedes finds out that John tried to kill DDax and nearly killed Dax instead. Everything is bad.
@ A few days before the end of the month, an already-exhausted Palamedes finds Prince Kiriona Gaia in his room. He finds out Gideon is John’s daughter.
Pal remembers the theorems and techniques of advanced soul magic, including how to pin revenants to an object, how to occupy another body with your own soul, and soul siphoning.
@ At the end of the month, Palamedes tries to get people to safety and ends up spending the last moments with Gideon.
