    Summary

    The room is silent. Neither wizard moves. A seagull calls in the Quay outside the tower.

    Yussa takes a step forward and Caleb drops the spell, lurching forward to catch the glass figurine in its freefall.

    The older wizard approaches the chalkboard and slows its spin, picking up a piece of chalk from where it had clattered to the floor. Carefully, he draws bold boxes around the parts of Caleb’s theorem where gravitational magic had played a key role.

    When Yussa turns to face the other wizard, Caleb looks younger than ever, standing awkwardly, clutching the figurine to his chest.

    “Who has been teaching you dunamancy, Master Widogast?”

    Yussa catches Caleb using dunamancy and wants to meet Essek. But after being introduced, Yussa has some concerns about Caleb and Essek's relationship. Misunderstandings abound.

    Summary

    When Oliver visits Infernal Procurements to have a sex demon summoned to be entertainment at a party, he assumes he's strong enough to control the binding.

    He's wrong. And the demon is more than willing to turn the tables and give him an object lesson on how demons are treated by humans.

    Summary

    Essek doesn’t date, and for good reason. It’s exhausting, the dance around feelings and pleasure, made worse by the shadow of his ill health. He’s perfectly content with the company of his Guides, their platonic exchange of intimacies fully serviceable. He doesn’t need anyone else.

    Caleb Widogast is the Empire human making a valiant attempt towards involving himself in Rosohna’s kink scene. He shouldn’t be as charming as he is but Essek finds himself drawn to Caleb, caught in his gravity well, pulled past the event horizon against his will. He doesn’t quite mind, especially when Essek connects Caleb Widogast to Bren Ermendrud, the researcher on loan from Soltryce studying time travel under Essek’s purview here in the Marble Tomes.

    Don’t we all have mistakes we wish to correct?

    Essek has made many and, caught up in a whirlwind romance with a Dom perfect in all the ways he didn’t know he wanted, he makes many more.
