Summary
After Towerfall, Martin manages to get himself and Jon taken to a medical tent. Jon isn't doing well however and Martin isn't sure he'll make it through the night. When he wakes up alone he assumes Jon had passed... only to see him extracting a statement and leaving the statement giver dead.
It becomes clear that Towerfall shattered the different pieces of Jon and he is now basically Jekyll/Hyde with his human and archivist sides, with the archivist side being the Magnus Protocol canon-typical archivist. He can't control it and once he realizes what he's doing he hates himself deeply. Martin however won't let him end it (though he does try. Repeatedly) and works with him to try to re-combine the two sides so that he can control it.
