Summary
When the events of Twinside leave the Dragoons short of a leader, it falls to Terence to take command.
It is during that disruption, however, where unseen wounds begin to fester. It is where duty and heart find themselves at odds, and where the conjecture of Valisthea's citizens proves to be the greatest test of all.

Summary
Every admission of fear or flash of concern is unbearable when Dion is compelled to follow and soothe it. His enemies belong to spectacle, and Terence’s strength is elsewhere.
During Belenus Tor and Bahamut's first clash with Odin, Terence keeps his priorities in line, even if he would like to do otherwise.

Summary
"So we lose, then?
Terence knew and he knew. That he would be first, and always, of the Empire, of his people, of his father. He could not do otherwise. It could not be otherwise, or the fabric of light of which he was made would fall apart. He loved him too much to ask such a thing of him.
And at the same time..."Very short piece written in a sleepless night. The main theme is the conflict between love and duty, central to the relationship between Dion and Terence. Set after a battle at an unspecified time between Belenus Tor and the events of the game.
Inspired by the poems "White Lily" and "Golden Lily" by Luise Gluck, which seem to evoke Dion's relationship with Terence (love, freedom), and her father (duty, respect, honor), respectively, and the dialectical tension between these extremes.Bookmarked by SakataYoshida

Summary
"In the middle of the year 874, the Sanbréque and Waloed factions had entered into a season-long pact of non-belligerence, following an exhausting conflict that had brought the reigns to their knees.
An armistice, pending the final construction of a peace treaty, or the resumption of hostilities, should Sylvestre succeed in finding a suitable casus belli.
Dion had read the missive, and his hand had had a tremor that only Terence had caught."Dion and Terence enjoy some days of peace and bliss. Shameless tooth rotting fluff all along!
