    Summary

    It has been sixteen years since Morgarath’s victory. Now, he sits upon Araluen’s throne, thirsting for more power. With the Ranger Corps broken, there is no one strong enough to stop him, not alone at least.

    Will, a farmer, is bored. The unknown calls to him, and saving his family is enough to push him on.

    Gilan is a rising star among the knights of the kingdom. After the death of Sir David, his father, Gilan is dismayed. He knows in his heart that his death was murder, and he knows that Morgarath had something to do with it.

    Crowley moves through the forests of Araluen with an entourage of “real” rangers under his command. Never having the heart to leave, he and the rangers travel across the kingdom, doing their jobs in secret, waiting for an opportunity to restore the Ranger Corps.

    Halt is an assassin. When a messenger from Morgarath finds him in his home, Halt does not hesitate to take up the biggest offer he has ever received. Traveling to Araluen, he finds himself struggling with his identity and who he is really meant to be.

    A farmer, knight, ranger, and assassin. Four strangers destined to rebuild Araluen from havoc. Morgarath’s reign is ending. Araluen needs to be saved.

    Summary

    “I mean it, Gavin,” Hank said. “If Price even looks at you funny, if he gives you any shit—” he took a step closer to Gavin to make sure that the younger man was listening “—you come to me immediately. Do you understand?”

    Gavin didn’t answer. He began to fidget considerably by Hank's proximity, but it didn’t seem to be from anger. It was almost as if he was getting upset.

    He hadn’t looked over at Hank since he started talking to him directly. Chris and Connor exchanged glances. Connor’s interest was more than piqued. Hank was acting odd. Almost… protective? Was that the word? Protective over Gavin?

    “Gavin?” Hank called again and Gavin’s attention finally snapped to the acting captain.

    “Yes. Hank. I understand.”


    An accident at a neighboring precinct has two departments sharing office space, but Gavin and Hank have murderous beef with the guest lieutenant and Connor is determined to find out why.

    Summary

    No, it's fine. Hank wanted to babysit a genius android during his investigation. He has the patience and the means to know how to handle a prototype android that costs as much as his house.

    Jesus.

    -- -- --

    Hank and Connor's developing relationship. The good and bad and the... weird.

     

    "Connor! Stop putting things in your mouth-- I know you can test them. It's fucking disgusting. Do it when no one can see you. I don't need to be sick again-- yes, I know it's helpful and I'm glad you can do it. Just... please remember no one wants to see you eat things you find at crime scenes."

    In the months following the android's peaceful campaign for equal rights, Detroit has mostly returned to normal. As Hank and Connor work to solve the cases that come by their desks, something that should be routine turns a lot more deadly. Cops and androids working for DPD are turning up dead, and a worrying pattern is emerging behind the scenes.

    With the threat increasing, Hank and Connor need to work fast to figure out who is behind it, and in turn, uncover the motive that would drive someone to such drastic measures. Will their efforts prove successful? Or will they just become the next targets in their suspect's killing game?

    Summary

    Apprentices, Pritchard has found, were like stray cats. From the day you open your door to your first, you're doomed to take in every one that comes your way.

     

    Exiled from Araulen on falsified charges, Pritchard arrives in Dun Kilty in search of a respectable job and a place to grow old in peace. A cabin at the edge of the woods, a woodkeeper's job with an occasional band of bandits to send home — what better place for a retired ex-Ranger?

    Except the dark and dangerous eyes of the Crown Prince of Clonmel never seem to leave him alone, and Pritchard grows determined to see beyond their shadows.

    Summary

    The events of Icebound Land up to Battle for Skandia/Oakleaf Bearers, but with one vital difference: Will does not tell Halt about what really happened when he was a slave. Together, Evanlyn and Will decide to keep the warmweed addiction a secret, fearing that revealing it could get Will expelled from the Ranger Corps.

    Halt is not as fooled as they think.

    Basically: here's what happens when you take a drug addiction and accompanying PTSD seriously.

    Summary

    It's Post-Revolution, and life is a lot more boring than anyone expected. It kind of sucks. Hank's doing better, whatever that means, Connor's trying not to turn Hank's house into a set for an HGTV house-flipping show (and failing), and they're both just trying to keep it together as well as they can. So Hank decides to buy Connor a plant before the cabinets get ripped out and painted, just until CyberLife's state-of-the-art deviant gets his job back.

    Connor LOVES it. Plants are his thing now. Who needs people? Who needs feelings? Plants are the real superior beings. The trouble is, everyone seems to think that he needs to 'make friends' and 'stop wallowing in self-pity' and 'confront his emotions', which is absurd, and Hank is wrestling with the fact that he's kind of a dad again somehow. Someone help these sad men.

    Featuring Android Jesus! Weird Plant Guy! And Copious Amounts of Plant Content!

    Summary

    There’s nothing wrong with the smile. It’s not one of the terrible, toothy ones Connor had given in their first days of knowing each other. It’s subtle, and looks like it fits on Connor’s face—like it folds right into the fabricated creases.

    It doesn’t look right on Connor.

    (Or: Amanda quietly wins on the stage. The thing piloting Connor’s body is not Connor. Hank will stop at nothing to get him back.)
