Summary
Cid has always thought the romantic tales of souls switching to be overblown nonsense, not least because he’s seen it go bad so many times. Waking up as a Bearer in service to the Holy Empire of Sanbreque doesn’t seem likely to change his mind – especially not when he learns what, exactly, four Bearers are doing in the woods not far from Waloed’s camp.
Clive, meanwhile, hasn’t thought much at all about such things in the five years since the burning of Phoenix Gate. As far as he’s concerned, a switch with Waloed’s Lord Commander is just one more hardship that he needs to survive long enough to track down his brother’s killer and take his revenge.
Neither of them expect this switch to end well. Both of them, of course, are wrong.

Summary
Clive Rosfield was ready to die, as he lay there on that beach. Origin was destroyed, Ultima was defeated, and he could finally, finally rest.
He was very surprised, therefor, to wake up again in his fifteen-year-old body in the rubble of Phoenix Gate.
He'd been sent back, given another chance to change the world. And with all the Eikons already under his control, he was capable of doing just that. Could he save those he loved from their fate? Could he make this world better than the last?

Summary
Valisthea is dying.
While kings and countries vie for dwindling resources, the Bearers who make up a small portion of the population live and die by the whims of their owners. Clive, a Bearer slave born in Rosaria, couldn’t care less about the political machinations happening around him: the fall of his home country, the political alliances of Dominants, or the wars between nations. He cares about one thing – the freedom network known as the Road which aims to save as many Bearers as possible.
Unfortunately, it’s never that simple.
Or, Clive is born a Bearer. This changes some things and doesn’t change others.
Afterall, Ultima is still out there waiting on their Mythos.

Summary
Clive was once the proud firstborn to Archduke Elwin, Rosaria's First Shield, and sworn protector of the Phoenix. Tiamat was once a proud noble in Oriflamme and heir to a wealthy family fortune. Now both are nothing more than branded Bearers, forced to serve in the Imperial Army.
The events of Phoenix Gate left Clive miserable and without purpose. So when he was pulled from the infantry out of the blue, he didn't fight fate. However, can Clive find a new reason to live and pull himself up from despair?
Tiamat's quiet life was suddenly uprooted the day his powers awoke. Thrust into his challenging new path at a young age, Tiamat learned to survive through any means possible, including decisions that still haunt him with endless regrets. What secrets hide behind Tiamat's tortured eyes?

Summary
Clive didn’t look up, but his pen stilled. “Go to sleep, Joshua.”
Joshua slinked closer, robe slipping to reveal a collarbone dusted with Dion’s fading marks: “Can’t. Dion’s in Dubai. The bed’s too… cold.”
Clive: “You’re playing a dangerous game.”
Joshua trailing a finger down Clive’s tie: “Games are only dangerous if you lose.” His toe brushed Clive’s calf under the desk. “Remember that summer in Nice? When you taught me to swim? You held me so tight I thought I’d drown.”
Clive answered hoarsely: “You were a kid.”
Joshua’s lips grazed Clive’s ear: “I’m not a kid anymore.”

Summary
“I…perhaps I have wanted you to do that,” Joshua softly said, avoiding his eyes. “That the feeling had always been mutual.”
“The feeling is more than just mutual, Firebird,” Biast sounded amused, but he pulled away. His eyes softened at Joshua's slightly flushed cheeks, and he thumbed at it.

Summary
His calcifying heart twinged at the thought of Cid.
'Do you see, Cid?' he thought as his vision failed like the rest of his broken body, the curse creeping over his flesh like the malignant thing it was. 'It’s done. I did it for you, for everyone. I just wish you could see it.'
The water lapped around him, under him, lifting him off the damp sand slightly, his heart beat struggling in a chest turning rapidly to stone.
'He knows, Mythos,' a voice he didn’t recognise echoed in his head, though he felt like he should, soothing, gentle like the waves lifting him. Then; 'quickly, quickly, we have but a moment.'
NOW! Another voice rumbled, this one familiar, urgent.

Summary
Perhaps this was a Curse of its own: spared from agonizing lithification, but afforded no escape from the slow advance of time under Sanbreque’s cruel heel.
Clive continues to serve Sanbreque for many, many long years.
--
The Bastards never find Shiva, Cid never rescues Clive, and he remains under Imperial slavery.-

'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all by BlessedEtherealFox
Fandoms: Final Fantasy XVI
02 Nov 2025
Tags
Summary
His story wasn't anything special. As he died on that beach, Clive contemplated what he would do to save his loved ones.
Would he become the hero to sacrifice all to save the world? Or would he decide to be the villain and sacrifice the world to save the ones his loved? There was a story he once read of a someone who wasn't regarded as a hero. No, the knight had become what was conventionally known as a villain in order to save the one he loved.
The choice between the two wasn't going to be easy especially when the memories of a past life were slow to be remembered when he was living his new life. But...if Cid lived...it would be worth it.

Summary
The mission was simple: find the new Dominant of Shiva and kill her. The good news: their target was indeed on the battlefield. The bad news: she and Titan were blasting their faces off while destroying the entire terrain.
***
Well, this is our men's mission. The authors behind this AU, however, have to find a way to make Biast, Aevis, Tiamat survive, until the end. Yes, those same three men we only see for an hour tops at the very start of the game. Ah ah... Wish us good luck!Series

Summary
Wyvern has always despised these types of missions with a burning passion. It's not that he actually 'enjoyed' any of the assignments he was sent on. Far from it. But the missions where he was forced to seduce his target in order to get close enough to them so he could ultimately end their life were by far the absolute worst...
