    Summary

    So what if his former associates thought of him as a lowlife? So what if he was disgraced from academia? So long as he was still welcomed back into the town-on-Gorkhon, nothing else mattered.
    With quivering hands, he picked up the letter and carefully opened it as though he was afraid something would jump out at him from inside it. But nothing had changed, it was the exact same as when he had first read it a week ago.

    Bachelor Daniil Dankovsky,
    There is another way.
    — Victoria Olgimskaya Sr., The Light Mistress.

    Yes, there was hope for him still, and hope he would cling to till death did them part.

    ———

    Over a year later, Daniil Dankovsky returns to the Town, with a letter from a dead woman and a ticking time bomb inside his own body, in a last-ditch effort to defeat death.

    Summary

    "Have you ever heard of homosexuality?" Dankovsky asks, a confident non-sequitor.

    The breath gets seized out of Artemy's lungs.

    "'Homo', in this case meaning 'of the same'," Dankovsky continues as if he didn't just yank Artemy's arm out of its socket with his words – or push it into place, rather? "Homogeneous, homologous, homomorphous – "

    "We're opposites," Artemy chokes out. "Didn't you say?"

    Summary

    “I want,” the officer says, walking closer to Artemy, who tears his gaze away from Daniil in favour of the floor. Let them think his panic is because of the general situation, but they absolutely cannot be given the ammunition of figuring out the full extent of their relationship. “For you to explain why, after a year of searching, we find a wanted man in your house. Or do you not know how that came to be, Artemy Isidorovich?”

    Any hopes he could possibly have had left of getting out of this with both of them intact disappears. Artemy doesn’t know what to do, he can’t talk to people like this, not with the finesse you need to get out of this kind of situation – Artemy knows how to work with reputation and favours, necessity or hard work earning respect, he has no idea how to make a man like this officer change his mind on executing them both.

    OR: After a year, everything breaks; the Powers that Be were never going to let them get away, and Artemy struggles to breathe against the powerlessness as he has to figure out a way to put everything back together.

    OR 2: The chase is over, the rat is caught. You can find him, but it will take time, and it will hurt.

    Summary

    If Artemy could memorize the Latin vocabulary required for an exam – that satisfied him. But beyond that, what use could he have for learning a barbaric, emotionless and clinically precise language like that?

    The answer to that question came to him years later, clothed in a snakeskin coat and with an arsenal of snappy remarks that somehow enamored Artemy as much as they annoyed him.

    ***

    Artemy wishes to confess his love to Daniil. He's considering learning how to speak Latin in order to do so. But at what cost?

    Summary

    Daniil cleared his throat.

    “The Powers That Be are the embodiment of order. There are always threads in the universe that dare to hang loose, and like a moth to a flame, they are always there to tug on them. The Powers That Be unravel everything simply to see what falls.”

    “So what? The plague is... it's all gone.”

    Daniil noted the slight tremor in Artemy’s voice. Artemy Burakh also lost many things in the chaos. He must also suffer from the nightmares. He must.

    “They wanted me to die in the plague along with Aglaya and Block and yet, the more information they received from us, the more they urged us to cure the incurable. To preserve the town. Do you hear me? They will not leave a town of miracles alone. It may not be right away… but they will send someone.”

    -

    There's no choice but to build a new life and live with the consequences, and so they do. But the events of the plague left deep wounds with the pain and fear of loss ever looming.

    Summary

    — Он причиняет боль, Медведь. Ты это знаешь.
    — Да. Но он и лечит. То, что мы видели в нем тогда, было отражением нас самих. Он стал тем, кем должен был, чтобы делать свою работу. Мы с ним враждовали, Стах. Представь, каково было нам и каково это было для чужака... каково чужаку до сих пор. — Артемий опустил взгляд. Чума закончилась несколько месяцев назад, и все же они относились к Данковскому как к чужаку. Он сам относился к себе как к чужаку. Как-то иначе называть его было бы неискренне... и все равно это казалось неправильным.
    — Конечно. Людям нужно приспосабливаться к окружающей среде, чтобы выживать. Но змеи не приспосабливаются, когда сбрасывают кожу, не превращаются во что-то новое. Они еще больше становятся собой, — медленно сказал Рубин, глядя на фирменный плащ Даниила на вешалке и подбирая слова осторожно и тщательно.

    Summary

    The scab almost hidden under Clara’s cap itched and oozed, sticking to the wool and tugging whenever she turned her head. She would need another bandage for it – the last one had been lying crumpled on her pillow when she’d woken up, scabbed to it by the bloody mess she’d made in her sleep. But thinking about that, barter or scraping together enough coins to haunt the nearest pharmacy, had made her throat close and her eyes sting with stubbornly unshed tears.

    Couldn’t it all just stop? Not just the bleeding, which seemed to go on forever from such a clean-edged cut. Not just the itching and stinging, but the prickle of new hair growing under her cap, the need for clean bandages and pillowcases, the ache she couldn’t seem to wrap tightly enough in her arms. The life that was growing and going on around her, even in her body, dragging her along while she was still trying to find her footing in it.

    Summary

    "No, Daniil, I meant one more death. I’m showing you how to kill. Keep focus."

    He stared at Artemy, horror-stricken and confused, but desperately trying not to show it.

    "There’s no need to go that far—"

    "I can’t die."

    "What?"

    "I don’t die, Daniil. Are you worried?" He couldn’t help but smile a bit. "It will only hurt a moment. I’m used to it. I looked at the time when we entered the house, it’s fine. It will be like nothing happened."

    "What the hell are you talking about?…"

    "You won’t even remember. Uh, I guess there’s no use showing you, then… But I’d rather take it all now than wait for the wound to heal normally. I’m tired."

    Summary

    Daniil Dankovsky was many things, a scientist, a heretic, a doctor, a murderer, a madman...

    But if there was one thing he wasn't, it was a defeatist. He may have lost everything, but his ambition could not be tempered. He will achieve the impossible, he will defeat Death.

    Its not a question of how or even if it can be done. Dankovsky must accomplish this task. For should he fail and Death be proclaimed the victor, there is no telling what prize it might dare to claim.

    Summary

    A few days had past and everyone was settling into camp. The climate was warmer and muggy but there was a new town to explore with new people to rob and swindle! Nothing will change and nothing will go wrong! They believed that until 5 new people who spoke barely any english arrived on the shore at their camp. Seems that they have new members...
