    Summary

    28 months before Her Divine Highness' debut into society, Gideon Nav escapes the Ninth and subsequently disappears into thin air.

    25 months and 21 heavily redacted letters later, Harrowhark Nonagesimus receives an invitation to attend the Emperor's lyctor trials... and also vie for the hand of His only begotten daughter in a competition of courtship.

    Harrow really fucking hopes she's wrong about who Prince Kiriona is.

    Summary

    She feels like he’s peeling every layer of her being, one by one by one. And when he gets to her bones, he’ll find something she’ll never be able to run away from.

    “…you,” the stranger says, his hands flexing into fists. Unclenching again. “You are…”

    Gideon holds her breath. She doesn’t know why she thinks so, but it seems to her that Harrow does as well.

    The corner of the man’s lips twitches up in a smile.

    “You’re the spitting image of your mother.”

    Summary

    “I will never ask anything of you, ever again, if you just give me back the life of Gideon Nav.”

    “I can't.” said the Emperor softly. “For it is not mine to give.”

    Harrow felt her brain starting to form questions, half of which she never would have dreamed of speaking aloud to him, but before she could say anything particularly blasphemous a noise stopped her. The noise was shortly followed by a very empathetic declaration of:

    “Fuck!”

    .

    Gideon Nav is alive, resurrected by the King Undying, and she's having a hell of a time.

    From a now embarrassingly protective Harrow, to her newly gained powers, to a Ninth House repopulated, shit is going down. With her sword, her wits, and her deeply buried feelings, she fights to keep this new life long enough to ensure her adept is safe. But Harrow's talking to herself, the Emperor is lying to them, and Gideon keeps fumbling every chance at a real conversation with the girl she died for.

    Worst of all, the River is calling her back, and she doesn't know how long she can stay afloat.

    Summary

    A muted murmur of joyful voices paused. Then the door unlatched, and opened a crack, and Harrowhark Nonagesimus peeked out. She was heavily veiled, but unpainted. Beneath the dark lace, her high cheekbones were flushed more pleasantly than Gideon had ever seen. But the rest of her face quickly washed with a startled shock.

    Harrow said, bewildered, “But - you already came back...”

    Panicked, Gideon pushed the door open.

    There, strapped with her lost rapier, banded with her missing knuckle knives, and wearing her fucking sunglasses, stood an identical Gideon Nav.

    The morning after the saltwater pool, the fatal path of fate diverges. A newly-bonded cavalier and necromancer push deeper into the Facility, clumsily navigating their new shy something. But the River that moves beneath it all has many mirrors and traces...

    Summary

    "In the end, she poisoned Ortus; so it was Harrow Nova who walked out to the shuttle a half-step behind the Daughter of the Ninth, the chain of Samael Novenary wound about her offhand wrist, the black blade of the Ninth at her side."

    Summary

    The crazy thing is that Harrow doesn’t even like her, the occasional blip at the sacred pool notwithstanding. Gideon dies for her – a stupid ordeal all around, the least said about it the better – and resigns herself to the Underworld, and that’s supposed to be that, right? Harrow isn’t supposed to come after her. Not till she dies herself, and Gideon is hoping that’s a long way off for a lot of reasons. She deserves at least a few decades without Harrow, after what that woman put her through.

    But come she does, with her stupid furrowed brows and haughty chin and clomping step. With sculptor’s fingers and artist’s eyes and that same old obnoxious confidence in her own brilliance. Harrow bulldozes her way to to the Underworld and stands before the throne of the God of the Dead, running on the fumes of her own manic determination, and demands Gideon back.

    And the Lord of the Underworld, John Gaius himself, says, “Wow. Let me think about that.”

    Summary

    Gideon tries not to think too much these days. She wants to focus on fighting this war, not the weird side effects of perfect Lyctorhood or the fact that Harrow can barely seem to be in the same room with her or that everyone keeps treating her like a bomb about to go off. It's going pretty well, if you ask her. Until she gets herself hurt protecting her useless necro, again, and Harrow's reaction does not fill her with warm, fuzzy feelings.

    Summary

    “My sword,” Gideon said, unable to put it out of her head even with Harrow’s mouth insistent on her lips. It had to feel like such a betrayal to watch Aiglamene go, to watch her disappear down the stairs with Gideon’s beloved blade. Aiglamene left her student lying broken before the Reverend Daughter of the Ninth House, defeated in a field strewn with easily accessible bone.

    “You’ll get it back." Harrow kissed the broken skin of Gideon’s lower lip, pressed it between her teeth.

    “What is this?” Gideon asked as she settled back into Harrow's offer, eager enough to kiss Harrow back now that she knew her sword was safe.

    “A parting gift.”

    Summary

    The heirs to the Houses have been summoned to compete for the hand of God's only daughter, with the promise of Lyctorhood thrown in the mix. Harrow's only goal is to preserve her House, which she plans to do with or without Gideon Ptolemaia's hand in marriage. But the Princess — and the other postulants — aren't what she expected.

    AKA: Harrow competes in a contest to marry Gideon, but mostly makes friends she doesn't want, patches her relationship with her brother cavalier Ortus, and tries to figure out why looking at Gideon gives her migraines.

    Summary

    Nona quickly twined her arms around Pash’s to try and keep her in place. “I want to have sex instead.”

    “What the fuck,” Pash said again, a little more intensely this time. She didn’t sound mad, though, so Nona wanted to push her luck.

    “I’m not a baby,” she said, “I know about sex and how it works. And you want to too, your hands told me.”

    Pyrrha and Cam are stuck in a debrief with Blood of Eden that's running late, so Pash gets roped into helping Nona get ready for bed.

    Summary

    “My parents are-- indisposed.” The child hardly faltered, though she barely made a speck of black cloak against the decrepit armored bulk of her retainer. “I act in their stead.”

     

    Abigail drew a deep breath. Dead, then. She was sure of it, but she would gain nothing by forcing the child to admit it. “I do not come as a pilgrim, Reverend Daughter. I come to seek the aid of the Ninth House. Will you help me?”


    At the behest of the very young newly-minted Master Warden, Lady Abigail Pent arrives on Drearburh to ask the Reverend Mother and Father for help. Instead, she finds two girls in desperate need of parents.

    They won’t let her help, but the young Reverend Daughter is willing to bargain.
