    Summary

    Mydei’s right here, right beside Phainon, like he always is, haughty and annoying and stupid and- he's alive.

    Alive- so why can't Phainon stop having vivid nightmares of spilled golden blood, a wound to the back incapable of healing-

    Of Mydei laying lifeless on the council grounds?

    (Or, Phainon starts having horrifyingly visceral nightmares of a past unfamiliar to him, and slowly begins to piece together that there is something more nefarious lurking behind both the Flame Reaver and Amphoreus than the Chrysos Heirs originally imagined.)

    Summary

    Amphoreus has long been a world torn apart by wars between sprawling criminal organizations. One of them triumphed by cruelly eliminating its opponents, but also the only government force that opposed them.

    In a bleak world where crime is part of everyday life, where the authorities are overwhelmed and the risk of falling victim to illegal trafficking is very real, ordinary people try as best they can to live normal lives. This is the case for Phainon, a new student who doesn't have enough money to live without a roommate and a part-time job. However, studying is just a cover for Phainon, and behind his radiant smile lies a dangerous determination: to infiltrate the criminal organization Castrum Kremnos and eliminate its leader, Mydeimos.

    Summary

    Phainon and Mydei don’t get along. That’s a simple fact that no one will ever be able to change. But if Phainon had her way, she’d do more than just beat Mydei’s exam scores and tear apart her perfect GPA. She wouldn’t stop until the other woman was groveling on her knees in awe of Phainon’s raw academic prowess.

    All she wanted was to completely overwhelm Mydei’s every thought every waking hour of the day. To sabotage her grades, of course.

    Summary

    "The wardens have grown significantly in size as you've aged. More thoroughly trained, more equipped for brutality when it's needed," Eurypon pronounces. He draws closer, voice dark. "But new advances have been made, as well. Shackles that sear flesh, poison that corrodes from within — both that I'm sure will be enough to bring a creature to tears."

    I will have your head, Mydei thinks. I will have your head, and I will enjoy watching the way your limbs flail as they search for its dismembered counterpart.

    The crown princess meets the Mer-king head-on. "Such measures are superfluous," she declares, "when I can retrieve the pearls myself."

    The Black Tide has hit the outer reef of Castrum Kremnos. Amidst the threat of destruction, it is revealed that Mydei’s sea-witch “friend”, Phainon, can cry pearls - ones with the ability to neutralize the corruption. Mydei will not allow this fact to be taken advantage of by others.
