    Summary

    Alphinaud has spent years waiting for his growth with increasing impatience, but it's been painfully slow in coming. There is nothing quite so frustrating as being an adult stuck in a youth's body. All the more so as he knows he must wait until he's grown before he can truly confess his feelings to Estinien, and have any hope of them being returned.

    But there are more effects from the Scions' journey to the First shard than they had yet realized, and it turns out there's a terrible reason the twins' growth has been so delayed. Faced with the possibility of never growing up, and all the disadvantages that entails, Alphinaud has no idea how to deal with his new reality.

    He's not quite willing to give up on his dreams just yet - and, it seems, Estinien isn't so willing to admit defeat, either.

    Summary

    Of course, the law did not make exceptions for good intentions... Letho was aware his choices could lead to trouble. Really! Not the least of which being that he couldn’t keep a child secreted inside the cabin forever, and living just outside of Leyndell made it... extremely likely that the royal guard might one day come knocking. He knew that. Honest. He'd just... decided to deal with things as they came.
    It wasn't like the kid had asked for any of this, after all.

    Summary

    "Godwyn never speaks of their Queen-Mother then, but he speaks much of his father, the Once-Lord Godfrey, oft on enamoured Radahn's request, and Miquella has long learned to infer the shape of things from the holes that their absence leaves behind.

    And it was on one of these occasions, not so long ago, when Godwyn was holding in his arms the yet-unnamed little Godefroy, still wet from the womb, that Miquella first learned of Prince Morgott."

    Summary

    There were two infants dropped in the shunning grounds, who grew up reliant on one another more than anything else, and the only rule which they had to obey was stay below the surface… Not that they followed it with any especial care. And now, they were set loose on the world that rejected them.
    Or,
    Mohg and his brother were living in the capital, but that had not always been the case. Mohg compares then to now while trying to navigate the intricacies of court life. Miquella is unusually helpful, to that end.
