    Summary

    In Lyney’s completely rational and wholly unbiased opinion, his first defeat at the hands of Wriothesley doesn’t come until three days after the near disaster at the Fortress.

    Because losses, as everyone well knows, only count when the fight is fair.

    5 times Wriothesley beats Lyney in a fight + 1 time Lyney finally wins.

    Summary

    Kaveh laid there, in a bed that did not belong to him, in a home that should have been his, and he thought.

    Alhaitham had been distant. He left early and came home late. He skipped meals. Kaveh had been called many things in his life, but he was not an idiot. Every time Kaveh worked his way through the facts, he arrived at the same conclusion. It was not a pleasant conclusion, but it was the right one in all the ways that mattered.

    Alhaitham wanted him gone.

    - - -

    In which Kaveh realizes that the foundation beneath him is not as steady as he once thought. (Or maybe that it was stronger than he could ever imagine.)

    Summary

    “Fight back” Kaveh shouted.

    “Just fight back, you’re stronger than me, stop playing- stop pretending like you’re weak!” Kaveh roared. He held the sword threateningly, hoping to scare Alhaitham into fighting back. But all he could see was those same eyes, those watercolor eyes that always seemed to sparkle a bit more when he was around. He knew, Alhaitham never looked at anyone that way and he knew what that meant. He knew the prince of the desert well enough to know why he laid on the floor and let Kaveh pin him down with a sword.
