Samuel will get killed off by someone from the carnival.	None.	+ Nobody seems to like him. - To quote Lucius Accius, "Let them hate, so long as they fear."

It was implied that Samuel wants to fill it with Peter, whom he seems to be very interested in. + It is unclear how the compass tattoo appeared on Peter's arm, but since Samuel was smiling, it may be because Peter somehow replicated his ability. • Samuel could have put the tattoo there when he and Peter shook hands.
