    Summary

    “Oh, ah. Hallo.”

    Essek startles so badly he drops his levitation. He whips around, a hand thrown reflexively out to defend himself, a spell ready on his lips. He has to blink. And blink again. But no, he is not imagining this. Here is Caleb Widogast in the flesh, standing in Jester and Fjord's sitting room.

    “Hello,” Essek manages, his throat very dry.

    [Or: Four times Dynasty fugitive Essek Thelyss sought refuge with Jester Lavorre, and one time he found Caleb Widogast instead.]

    Summary

    It has been a long time, but the shadow that crosses Essek’s face is no longer unfamiliar to Caleb. He thinks he can place it now that he has seen it so often—it looks very much like guilt.

    “I am happy here,” Essek says. “How could I not be?”

    For some reason, the assertion is thrown at Caleb with more force than is called for.

    Who is Essek really trying to convince: Caleb, or himself?

    Summary

    After their climb up an anti-magic tower and their endless teasing, the wizards decide to take a long rest in the stairwell. Essek endeavours to make this a peaceful night. The issue is that he is in Aeor, trying to trance on a staircase, with Caleb peacefully snoring right by his knee, and he is as hard as his Graviturgy final assignment in year 12 with no relief in sight. Before the night is up, he may or may not succumb to some questionable urges - and a certain companion might be more than amiable where aid is concerned.
