Summary
In a heated duel at the height of a losing battle, Jaina casts a last-ditch portal. It's meant to send the Warchief to the center of Alliance command, where she can be subdued and put on trial for her crimes. Unfortunately the portal sends them to another plane entirely—where Jaina, stranded in unfamiliar wilderness and crippled by the magical backlash, finds herself dependent on the assistance of an experienced ranger.
Mutual need allows them to hammer out a truce, but even that can't keep them from falling back into old habits; once through the shock, neither of them wants to rely on the other, and they're both quite willing to lie, double cross, or otherwise manipulate the other to achieve their own ends. The tentative ceasefire seems doomed to failure, until contact with the residents of this strange new planet makes it horrifyingly clear exactly what kind of civilization they have stumbled upon.
Suddenly, everything has become simpler—and infinitely more complicated.
(Or: An archmage and a banshee take it upon themselves to fix Gor by any means necessary.)

Summary
There are three things in life that Ruby Rose knows.
One, that she really loves running. Is addicted to the sound of wind blowing past her ears and the feeling of her legs pushing forward and up.
Two, that she has something to prove. To the sponsors and sports officials who scrutinise her in her late mother’s shadow. To herself, who has never felt ready to match up.Three, that she is in love.
Though the last one is pretty recent. And the most terrifying, to boot.
This is how she copes.(There’s a happy ending, I promise.)

Summary
For some people, sight is lost from birth. For others, it's a slow decline. For Weiss, it's a sudden drop-off point that leaves her no time to adjust. Surviving a massacre has her scarred, though she does her best to hide it.
Four months later, Blake returns to her side and gives her the courage to leave the house, meeting her high school best friend, Yang, and her mute little sister, Ruby. The bubbly girl takes an interest in the heiress and attempts to converse despite their disabilities. At first, Weiss is hesitant due to personal issues but slowly opens up the Ruby as time goes on.
