    Summary

    Once the hunters were a proud band of brothers-in-arms; once the scourge seemed surmountable. Those days are long gone, now. Amidst the chaos of a city collapsing in on itself, two little girls have been left frightened and alone. But two of the last hunters left are determined to save them - to deliver them into the sunlight before the rot and ruin of Yharnam can swallow them whole.

    Summary

    Five years after the revolution that made him both a hero and a failure, Sylvain Jose Gautier is living a quiet rural life, having given up his titles, sold his lands, and left his friends behind. Though he has tried to put his past behind him, it comes back to haunt him when Edelgard asks him to undertake one last mission for her, forcing him to reconnect with old friends and confront the man he was, the man he is, and the man he wishes to be.

     

    (A post-Crimson Flower story wherein Sylvain, Felix and Ingrid were recruited to the Eagles and tried to save Dimitri from himself by fighting on both sides of the war. Spoilers for Crimson Flower, with many borrowed elements of Azure Moon. Updates every Friday.)

    Bookmarker's Notes

    A Sylvain epic and a Black Eagles recruitment epic, with the raw wounds of grief at the heart of it. Technically a sylvix story, it goes well beyond any simple notions a tag could give you, and offers a deep character study.
