    Summary

    Phainon stands still and silent in the locker room, all thoughts stopped to a halt, while Mydei, unaware, finishes tying up his shoelaces. Phainon’s eyes grow wide and stupid, his mouth agape, all words forgotten, unable to look away. He must be seeing things… Except he’s not. There’s a string of black cloth hugging his best friend’s hip— lingerie, he thinks, his vocabulary reduced to the bare minimum. Mydei is wearing lingerie. Mydei is-

    Summary

    Khaslana had long slain Phainon. This time he did so earlier, letting his body rot in the burning wheat fields. He planned to do the same to the other Heirs, as he had countless times before. Including Mydei, a reminder of love from that very first cycle.

    But when this Mydei saw the golden cuts on his skin and asked for his name, Khaslana suddenly desired to lie. Even when his mind was already crumbling.

    So he only said, "Phainon."

    (Set in one of the earliest cycles before "Khaslana" becomes "Flame Reaver". Slow burn tragedy.)

    Summary

    "How can you call it gambling when the outcome is already pre-determined? I will take my chances with a losing bet than settle for a fate that doesn't agree with my principles."

    "That does sound like something you would do," Phainon says. "But I'm not quite the gambling type."

    "Aren't you?" Aventurine raises an eyebrow, issuing a challenge that Phainon does not see coming. "Thirty-three million, five-hundred and fifty thousand, three hundred and thirty-six."

    The IPC takes the most pivotal step in extending a hand of friendship to Amphoreus. Even through the pitfalls of such a volatile alliance, Aventurine and Phainon end up turning that overture of friendship into something more.

    Summary

    It was supposed to be an ordinary walk home — a rare evening when Anaxagoras left his lecture hall early enough to catch Phainon closing the café. But when a stranger steps from the shadows and a gun glints under the streetlight, everything fractures in an instant.

    Phainon moves without thinking, stepping between the muzzle and the man he loves.

    When the shot rings out, Anaxagoras’ world becomes nothing but sound and blood and a body in his arms.

    He’s spent his life believing every problem could be solved — but there’s no formula for the way a pulse fades beneath your hands.

    Summary

    Amphoreus is saved, everything turned out ok, the Trailblazer and Cyrene used their book to bring all the people they have met and the whole world back to life and into the star system. Everything is great.

    Ok, so some people were brought back from different time frames, and are a little behind modern times. That's ok, everything is ok, they are all back and everything can be worked through.

    Audata is just glad her son is alive, sure she is grappling with the fact that he was just thirteen the last time she saw him. That's ok. What is not ok is the letter she received from her son mentioning he was bringing a guest to visit. This would be something she would be ok with, too. Except for Cyrene dropping the Dark Tide bomb of her son being married, something he conveniently forgot to mention in his letter. Oh and that his husband happens to be the Crown Prince of Castrum Kremnos. That is also something she would have liked to know too.

    Summary

    "Hold on, please," Phainon says, grabbing hold of Mydei's arm in desperation, trying to keep him on the bed.

    Mydei doesn't listen. He pulls himself free, striding across the room to tear open the curtains obscuring the only window. Outside the window, he can see the source of the light that had blinded him:

    There is no newborn sun of the new dawn. Instead, Kephale's Dawn Device still towers over Okhema. Below them, the city is eerily quiet.

    This is Okhema frozen in time, its citizens gone. Even the birds have been silenced. An afterimage of the past, of time together they'd sacrificed in search of the new sunrise. None of this can be real—a beautiful dream crafted to deceive him, only one that is now fraying at its edges, showing the rot underneath.

    "If this is the Era Nova, then where is the sun we were promised?" Mydei whispers under his breath.

    ---
    When Mydei gasps back to life after Amphoreus' last cycle, the world he returns to is no longer the one he remembers—and neither is Phainon waiting at his bedside.

    Or Mydei wakes up on the Herta Space Station.

    Summary

    Shen Qingqiu dies in the Ling Xi Caves instead of Liu Qingge.

    Liu Qingge must then deal with the aftermath while trying to understand the man he killed.

    Shen Qingqiu died with a breathless, wheezing laugh.

    There was blood on his lips and his teeth as he bared them in a painful imitation of a smile. A smile full of helpless anger and spite and an odd sense of resignation. And he laughed. Deep and guttural. He laughed until he choked. He laughed until the color fled from his cheeks and his eyes dulled. He laughed until there was no air left.

    Shen Qingqiu was silent after that.

    Summary

    Shen Jiu dies alone in the water prison, broken and discarded—his final thought a wish to be happy, just once. When he opens his eyes again, it’s as a child on the cusp of being sold to the Qiu family. But he remembers everything.

    This time, he runs. Not to fight, not to conquer, but to survive. To be free.

    With memories of cultivation, broken trust, and impossible grief still fresh in his soul, Shen Jiu becomes Shen Yuhei. From brothel kitchens to snowy mountaintops, he stitches a new life from thread and qi, voice and silence. Along the way, he finds kindness where he never expected it, and strength where he once had none.

    But the past doesn’t vanish so easily, and the world is slow to forget a man like Shen Jiu. Beneath the snow, something stirs—and not all ghosts are content to be left behind.

    Summary

    Shen Yuan is not able to harden his heart and push his white lotus Binghe into the Abyss resulting in his death. Devastated by the loss of his beloved Shizun, Binghe takes off with his body and is constantly on the run. He is young but he is determined to bring Shizun back to life.

    And then, despite all the adversities Binghe faces, he does succeed! He does get Shizun’s body back to life! There is only one minor problem though. The soul that now occupies Shen Qingqiu's body is not Shen Yuan’s but Shen Jiu’s.

    Summary

    “... you’ve gone mad, haven’t you,” the man said with narrowed eyes, voice hardening as he straightened up and wrapped his robes tight around himself, posture coiled and tight and unfriendly in a way Liu Qingge had never seen on him before. “Fine. I’ll say it only once, so do not forget from now on: I am Shen Qingqiu, Lord of Qing Jing Peak and your martial shixiong. Understand, brute?”

    “I… yes, shixiong,” Liu Qingge rasped as they stared at each other from across the abyss. “I understand.”

    But he didn't. Not at all.

    Long after they earned their happily ever after, Shen Jiu and Liu Qingge decide to enter seclusion in the Lingxi Caves and break through into the next stage of cultivation together. But when Liu Qingge prematurely ascends and the heavens send him back to avoid his fury, he ends up in a version of his world that's all too familiar and yet painfully alien.

    The other Liu Qingge, having taken his place back home, feels exactly the same way.

    Summary

    People would find out immediately, he realised. And oh, if they found out what he did, how Liu Qingge lived only because of him, they would laud him for it - then they would keep him in a cocoon for the rest of his short life. He wouldn’t be able to ascend with the others anymore, wouldn’t be able to go on missions or use Xiu Ya any better than a mortal could.

    He could no longer practice inedia, or hell, even keep up with his disciples who already had half-formed golden cores. Who would listen to him now, who would respect him now? What good was a strategist who couldn’t keep up with the men he ordered around? What good was a teacher who couldn’t demonstrate anything he taught to his students?

    What good was a cultivator who couldn’t fucking cultivate?

    Shen Qingqiu manages to save Liu Qingge's life in the Lingxi Caves at the expense of his own cultivation and immortality. Now condemned to a short, brutish life as a mortal again, Shen Jiu chooses to leave it all behind and eke out a small living while he can, aware that death could be at his door any day now.

    After all, what else does he have to live for?

    Summary

    Shen Qingqiu stood in the middle of the hall, gaze turned to look out the large doors to the side into the sweep of forest and fog covered mountains. His hair was down, falling almost to his calves and his robe was thin, barely more than a sleeping robe. Liu Qingge paused. He'd never seen Shen Qingqiu in less than three layers. Since Shen Qingqiu's qi deviation, he'd stopped dressing so fastidiously, no longer favoring high collars and sleeves that reached down to his fingers, but he still never walked around like this.
    There was something else strange, too. Something in the set of his shoulders, or the tilt of his head, like he'd walked a long way to get here and still could not rest. His gaze was distant. Not cold like Liu Qingge had suspected, but flat. There was no derision or joy there. There was nothing at all.
    -or-
    Liu Qingge starts having strangely vivid dreams of the past. The only commonality between them is Shen Qingqiu. But why is he acting like he did before his qi deviation?
