So this is a summary of everything that happened starting from "The roadblock" to "Hunger and Sunlight"
Lot of important story moments to cover, but I'll try to keep it succinct. I'll also be adding where one chapter's summary ends in case someone is trying to get a summary for a single chapter. I won't be adding this chapter listing to the other summary, because that one is less than 800 words, and a lot of the chapters in that initial arc are basic exposition.
SPOILERS OBVIOUSLY
