End things that are solidly on a 'day in Amber' timeline. Begin attempt to put into perspective other events. I don't know how helpful it is!

-- Jade has adventures! I know she went out into Shadow, came back, went out into Shadow again (I think?!) on a mission (maybe?!).

-- Jade and Lance chatted with Jade (a post-her adventures Jade)

-- I think Jon's been pulled about here in the timeline for Jade/Jon Weirmonken stuff? I guess? I don't know how many scenes y'all have had in that particular timeline bubble but it should fall about here in relation to Jade's first adventures and Lance's adventure, I think
