    Summary

    Arlecchino is surprised to have a visitor so late in the night, but she'd let hell freeze over before allowing Furina to stay at risk.

    A sequence of events that occurred during Furina's week-long stay.

    Summary

    Had you asked Furina if she expected the Knave to have watched her first performance after everything that had happened she would have laughed. She found it even more unbelievable that the Knave had gifted her an assortment of pastries that her children had baked for her. But, many late-night meetings later Furina couldn't imagine it any other way.

    Summary

    Despite Furina's desperation to leave the last 500 years behind her, she continues to be haunted by them. She becomes a social recluse in all her shame, caging off old friends and coworkers. What makes matters worse is that the Knave keeps sending her apologetic desserts, and with each one, Furina is more sure that the woman is purposely tormenting her. Furina is terrified at first, but as the Knave keeps weaving herself into Furina's life, Furina finds that she might be the only person who doesn't only see her as Fontaine's poor, former Archon.

    Summary

    The waters had receded. Fontaine was rebuilding.

    But guilt does not end with the tide.

    Arlecchino stood alone at the edge of the reconstructed opera house, her clawed hand resting lightly on the brass railing. From the balcony, she watched the stage below, empty now, except for a single white prop fan left behind during rehearsal.

    She hadn't come for the show.
    She came for her.

    Furina had shed her Archon robes and the illusion of divinity. In the chaos that followed the revelation of Neuvillette's identity and her own powerlessness, she had disappeared...

    quietly,

    carefully.

    No grand announcement.
