    Summary

    "I am the queen of spades, I am the wasp that stings, I am the dark serpent. I am the invulnerable animal who passes through fire and is not burned." - Elena Ferrante, The Days of Abandonment

    Rhaella thinks perhaps the gods, any gods, have heard her prayers, when Aerys vomits up blood in bed. (Aerys dies before the 'trial' of Rickard and Brandon Stark can commence. In King's Landing, Rhaella at last finds her footing. On Dragonstone, Elia makes her preparations. And in the Tower of Joy, Lyanna comes to a series of cold realizations).

    Summary

    "This plan is insane, unsafe, ill-advised, and - in case I haven’t already made it abundantly clear - I’m begging for the chance to join you.” Sea piracy, highway robbery, grand larceny, assassination, espionage, and a coup. Who needs bad guys with good guys this bad? Molly, Caleb, Essek and the Nein all rotate in and out of frame in this sprawling, thoroughly upsetting and utterly ridiculous sojourn through the criminal underworld of Wildemount.

    Summary

    When no rescue comes for Percy in Whitestone's dungeons, he is given a choice: Take the dubious salvation of becoming Dr. Anna Ripley's assistant and aiding his family's murderers, or die.

    When Orthax appears to Percy, he is given another: Plot his retribution under his targets' noses, risky as it may be, or never see his family avenged.

    When his other choices backfire disastrously, the demon gives him one more: Accept his fate, or make contact with a party of complete strangers, who call themselves Vox Machina, and cling to the foolish hope that there are still people in this world he can trust.
