Summary
What's true does not throw sand into one's oculars. So sleep, Zahndrekh. Sleep in your sworn-brother's grace.
Millions of years after Yama, Setekh finally confesses the intensity with which no part of him has moved on.
As a last resort, he appeals to the Stormlord to take Zahndrekh with him to Doahht. A monologue signifying nothing.[Written for the WH40K Secret Sanguinala Exchange 2025. Setekh→Obyron/Zahndrekh. References past events of Severed.]

Summary
Love does not save him, pain does not move him. The only thing that brings him joy is the hope of dying young.
One can hide a lot behind veneers. Memories, truths, physical or psychological pain.
In the face of one so reticent, Zultanekh reminisces and desires. Mourns too, eventually. Soulmates AU.[Written for the WH40K Summer Fest Exchange 2025. Zultanekh/Djoseras, set during The Twice-Dead King: Ruin. Companion piece to Dolorosa.]

Summary
Of one house and one mind, so they say.
Obyron never believed a soldier's life was anything other than dismal. Yet deep inside, he still nurtured a drop of wonder.
A spark, perhaps. His liege lord set it aflame. A retelling of their beginnings at Yama, up to Zahndrekh's rule of Gidrim.[Written for the WH40K Summer Fest Exchange 2024. Obyron/Zahndrekh. References past events of Severed.]

Trazyn has been invited to attend a conference of his... peers? No, Trazyn has no peers. On the other hand it wouldn't do to arrive unprepared to vigorously debate his academic rivals. Time to get in some practice.
