She challenges the rest of the Dregs, brandishing a long knife and asking, "You a Dime Lion? Or are you Dregs?" Īnika and Pim accompany a wounded Kaz to the rest of the Crows at the Geldrenner Hotel, where Kaz outlines his plan to swindle the Merchant Council by making them invest in a false fund. Per Haskell makes a last-ditch attempt to keep control of the gang and inform Rollins of Kaz's coup, but Anika stops him at the door. Anika is the first to agree with Kaz when he tells the Dregs that siding with Rollins is not safe. When the Dregs beat Kaz on the stairs, Anika and Keeg yell at them to stop. Like the other kids Kaz brought into the gang, Anika disapproves of Per Haskell and the Dregs betraying Kaz in favor of the reward from Pekka Rollins and Jan Van Eck. Kaz tells her to go back to work at the Crow Club, and she scurries off. When Kaz returns to the Slat later, Anika tells him she heard a rumor that the Black Tips are already planning to move against the Dregs. Anika is one of the Dregs who gather at the eastern entrance to the Exchange while Kaz parleys with Geels from the Black Tips.
