X is for Xenodochy - reception of strangers, or hospitality: sometimes a good thing at Collinwood, and sometimes not.

Z is for Zubenalgenubi (or Zubeneshemali, pick one), which are two stars in the sky, which weren't the charred and blackened star or stars that reigned at the Devil's or the Leviathans' or Blair's birth, but all that black stuff must have eventually ended up forming newer stars, such as these two.  I'm not entirely sure about the spelling.

Laura just headed for and passed through the point where I was going to begin typing this sentence.
