    Summary

    Harrow all but collapsed onto the bed next to her, burying her face in her hands.
    “Gideon. I'm pregnant.”
    Gideon blinked once. Twice.
    “Is that even allowed?”

    Summary

    The resurrection of the dead of Canaan House, as carried out by newly minted and unwilling Lyctor Harrowhark Nonagesimus.

    (The Second learn there are some things you can't - and shouldn't - shut out and soldier your way through. The Fourth gain a handful of new role models, for better or for worse. The Fifth learn that perspective is a sword with two edges, and the clarity of understanding can bring with it a great deal of pain, but also a map through which to chart the way forward. The Sixth find the strength to hold everything together except for themselves. The Eighth tumble into the free-fall that comes after a crisis of faith slashes every string holding the world together and hit the ground hard. And the Ninth?

    Well. The Ninth House never did care much for the rules of what is, isn't, or should be 'possible.')

    Summary

    A muted murmur of joyful voices paused. Then the door unlatched, and opened a crack, and Harrowhark Nonagesimus peeked out. She was heavily veiled, but unpainted. Beneath the dark lace, her high cheekbones were flushed more pleasantly than Gideon had ever seen. But the rest of her face quickly washed with a startled shock.

    Harrow said, bewildered, “But - you already came back...”

    Panicked, Gideon pushed the door open.

    There, strapped with her lost rapier, banded with her missing knuckle knives, and wearing her fucking sunglasses, stood an identical Gideon Nav.

    ---

    The morning after the saltwater pool, the fatal path of fate diverges. A newly-bonded cavalier and necromancer push deeper into the Facility, clumsily navigating their new shy something. But the River that moves beneath it all has many mirrors and traces...

    Summary

    Gideon probably wasn’t in Hell, which was, technically, lucky, but she sure as anything wasn’t where she was supposed to be, which was blended seamlessly with her necromancer in Lyctoral glory for the next myriad. She was here, and it was weird, and it was pissing her off.

    After her death, Gideon wakes up back in her cell on the Ninth—or, rather, what she thinks is her cell. A retelling of HtN from Gideon’s perspective at the bottom of the well, featuring repressed memories, a whole butt ton of skeletons, and Harrow in a bow tie.

    Summary

    The heirs to the Houses have been summoned to compete for the hand of God's only daughter, with the promise of Lyctorhood thrown in the mix. Harrow's only goal is to preserve her House, which she plans to do with or without Gideon Ptolemaia's hand in marriage. But the Princess — and the other postulants — aren't what she expected.

    AKA: Harrow competes in a contest to marry Gideon, but mostly makes friends she doesn't want, patches her relationship with her brother cavalier Ortus, and tries to figure out why looking at Gideon gives her migraines.
