Summary
Kaeya spirals as he reaches his deepest low — mentally and physically. The rift between him and Diluc seemingly irreparable, he shoulders his burdens alone. After collapsing in the street on a cold night, sick and drunk, his savior — a stray dog — keeps him warm, possibly saving his life.
But this isn’t any ordinary dog, and as the Ragnvindr brothers attempt to rebuild the bridges they’ve burnt, it’s clear that the loyal canine that follows Kaeya everywhere has a story to tell behind its peculiar, yet familiar starry eye.
A series in the works about reconciliation between brothers, the importance of bonds between family and friends, and Kaeya’s re-discovery of his roots — all thanks to his new (and mysterious) four-legged companion.

Summary
It’s a plot of land. Clearly it’s been maintained despite the outward appearance; tilled soil covers a massive square of earth, lined rows ready for seeds to be planted.
Kaeya lets his eyes scan the place, still not able to put it all together. ”What is this?”
”It’s your land, Kae. Land that Father bestowed to you.”
The captain snorts. ”My land? Since when?”
—
In other words, the brothers stop being so stubborn and confront what’s been on their minds.

Summary
Kaeya’s brow furrows. ”What..kind of trick?”
”An awesome one!” She demonstrates by patting Cantus’s shoulder. ”Klee touched his arm, and we both, um, disappeared in a FLASH!” She claps both hands together. ”And suddenly, poof! We were here! In like, a second!”
”So..you and Cantus..teleported?” Kaeya feels a strange sensation knot in his chest, and he feels Cantus’s starry eye upon him as it pants happily, carefree.
Klee nods excitedly. ”Yup!”
—
While playing with Klee, Cantus reveals a secret that leaves the brothers both concerned and intrigued; yet another mystery about the dog they must unravel as time goes on.

Summary
”What do you want with me!?” Kaeya snaps, struggling against the pressure. ”I have nothing of importance to you!”
”On the contrary, Kaeya, you have everything of importance to me,” The hovering vulture replies. ”That, and your filthy mutt, too. Surprisingly, that thing has intriguing powers of its own. Surely you’ve noticed.”
——
When Kaeya’s mission in Dragonspine goes awry, both he and Cantus find themselves in a perilous situation that risks all their secrets falling into the wrong hands.
And of course, his brother Diluc will stop at nothing to bring them back home.
