Summary
After the trial of Trent Ikithon, Caleb is ambushed and tries to hide in Eiselcross. However, he misses his mark, and needs Essek's help to find the outpost before he either bleeds out or freezes to death.
From this prompt: "Caleb teleports to Essek in Eiselcross in a last ditch effort to get away from danger, but misses. He sends to Essek to warn him, and Essek has to repeatedly send to a freezing and disoriented Caleb trying to get him to take off his anti-scry necklace so he can find him to teleport to him."

Summary
After Caleb's plan for the T-doc is changed, there are some old demons to face, and feelings to deal with.
-----------------------------------
Liam said Essek and Caleb would eventually become romantically involved - once they worked out their own shit. And I decided to run with it.
Also, Caleb is full of angst and trauma and I just couldn't leave that alone.

Summary
When you make enemies of the two most powerful nations in your continent, there is barely any other option than falling off the face of Exandria... But wizards are curious by nature, gossips by trade, and they can never resist when a juicy new mystery falls on their laps.
Which is how it came to be that the question on everyone's lips is: where are Essek and Caleb?

Summary
There had been rumours about his and Caleb's sordid love affair since long before it was technically true. Essek was simply... playing into them a little, to help his defection go a little more smoothly. Rosohna would gossip about it for a few months, and then the rumour mill would move on, as it always does.
(it doesn't).Or: how Essek and Caleb accidentally inspired (at least) a few dozen smut novels.

Summary
He knew he was doomed. There was a sharpness in her gaze that only appeared when she was gearing herself up for battle. Tempers flared. And maybe… maybe he wanted to be caught. Maybe he wanted it to be his own people who decided his fate. Maybe he was just… Tired.

Summary
When the Beast opened its mouth to speak, Essek was faced with a mouthful of canine, wolfish fangs and teeth.
“I did warn you.”
Essek was utterly petrified. The small, primal part of him which flinched from flames and the edges of cliffs had woken and declared the thing standing before him a threat. More than a threat, a nightmare.Essek, long having retreated into exile, is trapped by an obscure curse and forced to shelter in a strange isolated manor. His only hope of escape is in the hands of the apparent lord of the manor, a Beast who is appears both charming and repellent in equal measure.

Summary
Essek wakes one day to find a man he hardly recognises in his bed. One who answers to Bren and flinches from the sight of him. One who has no recollection of him or their friends.
Seperated by more than distance, Caleb wakes trapped in a cold tower. His parents are still alive and that should be a blessing but none of his friends remember him, especially the Shadowhand who may be his only hope of returning home.
e.g Caleb and Essek learn to love every version of each other and of themselves
