    Summary

    “Well… I do know that you are very handsome.”

    Marius snorts into his drink. He glances derisively over at Leon’s unreadable face.

    “Would you look at that,” Marius says blandly. “The Envoy’s got jokes.”

    Beneath that woody, mask-like growth, Leon frowns.

    “I wasn’t joking,” he protests.

    “Pe dracu,” Marius scoffs, “Coming from a blind kith? It is.”

    “I don’t need eyes to know that,” Leon insists.

    Traveling with the imperial envoy has reminded Marius to expect the unexpected. Perhaps it should not have come as a surprise to him, then, that the one person who can see straight through him is someone who cannot see at all.

    Summary

    The Envoy, Kai and Marius arrive at Emerald Stair, searching for any solution to the Dreamscourge in the animancers of Fior. However, the envoy seems restless. It turns out he has some other buisness in Fior. He seeks a friend from back in Aedyr, someone who might be in danger, considering the presence of the Steel Garrotte.

    Meanwhile, deep in the dusty laboratories of Fior, a young necromancer elf practices her dark magics in solitary. She finds it difficult to concentrate, however, her mind fixed on a friend from the past, who hasn't wrote back in months...

    Summary

    After visiting Tama's cottage in Emerald Stair, Kai is reserved and melancholy. Envoy Inha hates to see him so far from his usual cheerful, irreverent self. It was that Kai that allowed Inha to unwind, to breathe, to feel like a real person instead of a weapon when she arrived in the Living Lands. So, in an attempt to pull him back to himself and raise his spirits, she tries to tell him what he means to her.

    Summary

    Millefiori / ˌmɪl ə fiˈɔr i, -ˈoʊr i / Italian, "A Thousand Flowers": A type of ornamental glasswork created by fusing glass rods in such a way that it forms a floral pattern when the bundle is cut and displayed in cross section.

    Kai's heart breaks for Stell. All her life, she has longed to find her place and purpose in the universe. Instead, what she uncovers within the ruins of Naku Kubel is not the peace she hoped for, but rather a revelation that leaves her in pieces. To make matters worse, she doesn't have time to gather herself up before being forced to make an impossible decision that will decide the fate for the people of Shatterscarp. As Kai helps Stell wrestle with the consequences, she and her companions must find strength in each other to move forward towards a more hopeful future.

    After all, they are stronger as a whole.

    This fic stands alone and does not require previous reading from this series.

    Summary

    Kai is not to be trusted.

    That's what he believes to be true, anyway.

    And yet, earlier in their journey, the Aedyran envoy Stell declared that she did trust him. She trusted Kai enough to spend a mortifying — albeit enjoyable — night with him while she was suffering the agonizing effects of heat-inducing spores. In the wake of that encounter, however, Kai pushed away his 'selfish' feelings and insisted that the night would not change anything between him and the envoy he respects above all else.

    But now, as they stand together beside the cairn of Kai's late friend, Tama, he can no longer hide his heart from Stell. Now, as the walls fall and truth comes to light, the two of them may finally begin to start again together — sailing on to warmer waters.

    ...that is, if Kai can find Stell when she gets stranded in a storm.

    Summary

    “You got something? To drink, I mean.”
    “Do I ever?” Kai grins at her, all sharp teeth, and digs a bottle out of his pack, which he waves in the air with a little flourish. “Best the Balarok has to offer.”
    “Which isn't that good at all” she adds with a quizzically raised eyebrow, thinking back to the Aedyran man in Shantytown who'd lost his eyesight by drinking there. Yet she reaches out to take the bottle.
    Kai laughs. “I see you got the gist of it. We still got some of that herbal cure for the eyes, right? Just in case.”

    Summary

    When the Aedyran envoy accidentally inhales the spores of an explosive mushroom, she develops a condition that sends her into an insatiable heat. Her companion — Kai — does his best to help, even if that assistance turns out to be more ‘hands-on’ than either of them expected.

    Of course, not everything they feel can be blamed on the spores. As the night goes on, Stell and Kai begin to realize that their friendship goes far, far deeper than either of them have ever dared to hope.

    Summary

    For now - she enjoyed the quiet moment, as she thought of the times long past - when in childhood she learnt and dreamt stories of long-lost Kulklin heroes, only to sort-of become one herself.

    And they never told us, she mused soundlessly, what heroes of those past times did as their pastime.
