    Summary

    A devouring force, awakened accidentally by the old gods of the sands, threatened to consume Sumeru, and a terrible curse cast upon the royal family was the only way to temporarily subdue it.
    When the prince was still a child, he asked the king and queen about their shared affliction often. Though they were unable to give him all the answers he desired, they knew that their son, ever eager to know the truth about everything, would someday seek those answers for himself.
    Perhaps someday, he would find them.

    Summary

    “Can I help you?” Alhaitham asked, settling back into his chair. He was never completely sure where he stood with Tighnari. Were they friends? Possibly. Probably. They drank together, at least. But Tighnari was a little too sharp for Alhaitham’s comfort; he always felt a little transparent under his eyes. But now those eyes weren’t focused on him. They weren’t really focused on anything. Tighnari looked half-mad with exhaustion, hair mussed and ears twitching wildly. He leaned one hand heavily against the doorway as he slumped in place.
    “Where is the Temple of Silence?”

     

    When Hermanubis turns against his host and leaves Cyno near dead, Alhaitham has too little time and too much desert to search in a desperate bid to find the Temple of Silence and the only people who might be able to save him. (Oh yeah. And then maybe he can confess.)

    Summary

    “We should rest.” Cyno’s voice broke through the constant faint sound of wind in the distance and steps in the sand.

    Alhaitham did not immediately answer, but he considered Cyno’s statement. He did not pause in the pace of his trudges as he did so however, for he knew stopping would have made it even more difficult to pick up his feet again than it already was.

    Alhaitham experiences a flare-up of pain while he and Cyno are travelling through the desert.

    Summary

    As Acting Grand Sage, Alhaitham has been enjoying a deepening friendship with Cyno. Work is going as smoothly as it can be -- until Alhaitham notices something very strange. His vision seems to be acting up every time he's around Cyno, causing plants and flowers to grow randomly. Alhaitham begins to research his strange ailment, with Cyno only getting increasingly concerned as time passes. Perhaps what Alhaitham needs isn't a stack of books, but the advice of his friends?
