Alice Grove MCDLT - October 2016
Tova:
Ardent will be captured.
Gavia will ultimately need to overcome her resentment to rescue him.
One of my few bouts of speculation.

Gavia wouldn't need to overcome her resentment to rescue Ardent. The desire to return home is all the motivation she needs.

I do hope Jeph avoids tropes or some interminable chase sequence. Jeph is taking some chances with this webcomic and honestly it's really his best work to date blending action, adventure, comedy and a great storyline together. QC is a great webcomic, but there's a bit of a "small world" feeling to it because of the intimate nature of the interactions and somewhat repetitive gags. Nothing wrong with that, but the fresh, expansive nature of Alice Grove is (IMO) more interesting.

Yes, that ought to be enough to overcome her resentment. Probably.

But's it's not really overcoming resentment. It's treating Ardent as a means to an end and once that end is achieved she can do as intended and be rid of him.
Perhaps this is for the best albeit temporarily since they may learn more about themselves if they are separated for awhile. One possibility within the ones listed is they get away, but have to split up since Mr. Bad News can't chase 2 groups headed in opposite directions. Gavia seems more adept at surviving than her brother so perhaps some time away with Alice or Sedna may be good for her and everyone else involved. I think deep down she doesn't really hate him, but to blame the praeses is like blaming her parents or gods and she refuses to consider the possibility that she was a disposable pawn in whatever game they are playing. Can you blame her?
