The Queen of Mace Street is Gone.

[metromancer]

Found Shell's body across the street tonight. Sat with her early this morning; watched her eat her breakfast as I had coffee; didn't know it would be the last time I'd hold her. Worried about Series Three; walked up and down the length of Mace Street to no avail. Wouldn't know where they'd be. Not making much sense right now; too much in shock. If the kids don't claim her body, will bury her by Rosalyn. At least she won't be alone. And there'll be more than a few of her children waiting for her on the other side.

The Queen is gone; Mace Street remains.
