    Summary

    Phainon gets sick as hell, everyone overreacts (understandably), Mydei drops increasingly un-subtle sentimental trinkets like a lovesick crow, Aglaea delivers her regular dose of poetic shade, and Tribbie is Tribbie. By the time Phainon’s mind clears, he’s short a fever, up a bracelet, and still trying to figure out why Strife’s god keeps sitting bedside like it’s a confessional.

    Summary

    Mydei’s right here, right beside Phainon, like he always is, haughty and annoying and stupid and- he's alive.

    Alive- so why can't Phainon stop having vivid nightmares of spilled golden blood, a wound to the back incapable of healing-

    Of Mydei laying lifeless on the council grounds?

    (Or, Phainon starts having horrifyingly visceral nightmares of a past unfamiliar to him, and slowly begins to piece together that there is something more nefarious lurking behind both the Flame Reaver and Amphoreus than the Chrysos Heirs originally imagined.)

    Summary

    “I shall refine my skills and prove my worth,” Phainon decides eventually, voice hard like he is afraid that anyone would challenge the claim. His eyes blaze as he stares right into Mydei’s soul. “I will surpass you, leaving you no choice but to watch my back.”

    As he plays the words over in his mind, spoken like an oath, Mydei realizes he would have possibly done something very foolish were they not surrounded by his men. It should be concerning, the way he is drawn to Phainon so thoroughly after meeting him just now.

    He is suddenly struck by the feeling of resemblance, recalling the tale of his parents he had heard so often from Krateros. Didn’t his mother challenge the King, proving herself a mighty warrior? Didn’t his father fall in love with her right then and there, rendered immobile by her strength?

     

    or; Mydei might be a great many things. But among them all, he is still his father’s son with his weak and foolish heart.

    Summary

    Mydei turned around, intending to survey how many Titankin were left and to taunt Phainon with his kill count.

    Instead, his breath left him and a frigid cold rocketed through his veins.

    Phainon stood next to a ruined wall, corpses of Titankin littering the ground around him. His greatsword was buried in the chest of a dying Titankin before him. But despite a second foe rapidly approaching him, Phainon had not yet removed his sword from the corpse. Sweat beaded at his brow, and even at a distance Mydei could tell that his breathing was labored. His hands left the hilt of his sword, and Phainon stared down at them. A mix of confusion and fatigue spread across his face. He stumbled, knees unsteady.

    The Titankin behind Phainon raised its weapon.

    Mydei had seen this once before. A great warrior brought to heel by some strange, unexplainable force, a fugue state descending upon them.

    His mother.

    Phainon is poisoned while fighting Titankin, and Mydei relives his worst nightmare. Injuries need tending, and confessions of the past and present are made.
