Summary
Instead of being at all cowed, Jinu’s eyes shine fever-bright as he leans forward and says eagerly, “This is just the start, what we need is a rival boy band.”
“…a demon boy band?” Romance says incredulously. “You really have lost your mind—in an especially court musician way. Who would even join you?”
“Well, I was thinking you for starters,” Jinu says, propping his chin on his hand, nearly slipping again, and then quickly rearranging himself to lounge nonchalantly.
Or Romance is pretty dubious about this entire demon boy-band idea, but if it's the only way to make another deal with Gwi-Ma, he's going to endure. And if along the way he gets to eat some eye-candy and share some banter with a certain muscular bandmate or the tall, mean huntress, that's just a bonus.

Summary
As a rule of thumb, Khaslana only granted himself the luxury of gazing upon her brilliant glow in two situations.
One, when he had to kill.
And the other, when he missed her.
Or: Khaslana spends eternity speaking to a moon that cannot answer him. Until one day, it finally does. A character analysis on the one who once bore the name "Phainon of Aedes Elysiae."

Summary
As the headless body of Irontomb shatters, Khaslana falls with it. Captured in a small window of time, somewhere in between the pages of Irontomb’s defeat and the ending, he drifts aimlessly in the space between. His porcelain wings fracture and crumble; the searing beneath his skin subsides. The Destruction chips off of him in tiny, glittering pieces like stars, crackling into nothingness, leaving Phainon raw and aching, eyes shut tight. 33 million cycles turned to dust.
Time stutters and starts, the past is muddled with the present, and Cyrene floats with him, parting through the layers as she reaches out to touch his shoulder.
“Sleeping now that the job is done?” she asks fondly, quietly. “You deserve it, of course, but there will be time for that later. I’d like to speak to you first.”
or: Cyrene, the Demiurge, officially meets Phainon

Summary
He takes the lead between them, Cyrene trailing behind. At the doorway, he stops and looks back.
“You coming?” he asks.
(Who can grow me a new sister? — paraphrased from Antigonick, trans. Anne Carson.)

Summary
The cycles in-between. The first and last, a few somewhere in the middle.
None of these matter in the end. The importance of them shall always be honored by the Deliverer’s final actions, by the scorching sun of Amphoreus finally, finally, allowing dawn to come.
Khaslana knows this story much too well. Khaslana, Gazed upon by the Destruction — Khaslana, emergent factor of Hatred, has lived through it a million times.
(Khaslana, born to hate, yet lovingly staring down at the words on the page, reminiscing, an old card in his hand.
Born to hate. Raised to love.)
Or, Phainon deals with the destruction of his home, years after it happens.
