Correct, you may have the floor.

By the time that Nick beams over to Deaner Beckmann's with Mikka, Vector, Sib, and Pup, he has made sure that Mikka will be unable to interfere with his intentions against Sorus.
How did Nick accomplish neutralizing Mikka?
Nick Succorso walked in the light g of the Lab's asteroid like he was riding a cloud. He was elevated by triumph, nearly giddy with aspiration Hungers which had hag-ridden his life were about to be fed: were being fed. Trumpet has become his. For reasons which meant nothing to him, and didn't interest him, Warden Dios had given him his own pet cyborg. Mikka and Vector were stuck taking his orders. Soon he would possess an effectively limitless supply of UMCPDA's mutagen immunity drug--all the wealth he would ever need. Morn herself was his as surely as Trumpet and Angus, ripe to be hurt.
And Soar was here. Sorus Chatelaine was here.
His heart and head were so full that they seemed to lift him from step to step, almost carrying him off his feet. He could hardly keep track of the deck.
With Mikka and Vector at his shoulders, Sib and Pup behind him, he left Trumpet's airlock to enter the access passage which led into Deaner Beckmann's installation.
Mikka glared murderously past her bandage, but Vector had perfected his look of mild calm, and his face showed nothing. As for Sib and Pup, Nick didn't give a shit what they thought or felt. He intended to sacrifice them in any case. Get even with them for daring to turn against him. Only Vector truly mattered. Mikka was just cover. And he'd made sure that ___ ______ ____ ____ ___ __. She wouldn't interfere because she wouldn't be able to guess his intentions.
Good question!

I was barking completely up the wrong tree until your clue. I was thinking it was in ADAHGA, but no! Chaos and Order! And the only reason I got it is because I found the passage
I'll try to do it without peeking, at least for this post.StevieG wrote:This Day All Gods Die contains POVs from 15 different characters. Hashi starts and end the book.
Can you name the 15 characters?
It's like there's a black hole in my memory! 
That must be one mother of a problem...Cord Hurn wrote:I'll try to do it without peeking, at least for this post.StevieG wrote:This Day All Gods Die contains POVs from 15 different characters. Hashi starts and end the book.

The usual suspects: Hashi, Angus, Morn, Davies, Min, Warden, Koina, Holt.
Also, I recall the following characters have TDAGD chapters named after them:
Dolph, Lane, Cleatus, Maxim, Marc, Sixten, and...?...darn, can't think of the fifteenth, yet.

Even though it was isolated, was my clue anywhere near the mark? (I think Cord might have misinterpreted it, though it sounds like it sent him in a good direction anyway.)StevieG wrote:Soooo close
So I am pretty sure I checked it (of course I may have made a mistake) but I think Sixten wasn’t a POV character. However I might be wrong... There is still one more character to find
Drat! Oh well. She was so pivotal, I thought surely she had a POV chapter. But then I wouldn't have even come close on the others.StevieG wrote: Not Norna I'm afraid. Still one more to go!
I too was surprised that she didn't have a chapter in TDAGD - must have been Chaos and Order. I had to go and check again, but she definitely didn't have a chapter.IrrationalSanity wrote:Drat!
