    Summary

    One year later Dankovsky returns to Town-on-Gorkhon, paperthin and worn. Pushing aside his confused tangle of feelings for his old colleague, Artemy resolves to diagnose the nature of Dankovsky's malaise--and the cause of his return.

    Only in the old fishing hut outside of town is it safe, quiet enough to talk, and free from the memories that plague them both. But they can't escape the threads in their blood. As visions rise to the surface and pull at the tides of their veins, a choice must be made. The wound cannot be left to fester at any cost.

    (An after of sorts.)

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Genuinely the best post-canon fic I have read to date. It does the original story the greatest justice and the prose is unparalleled.

    Summary

    Artemy Burakh has spent the last six days struggling to save his town from a virulent outbreak, largely alone. Now it seems he is losing his battle against the disease - a cure is possible in theory, but its components are a myth, and he is running out of time to find them. A new force has arrived in the town, one with the power to bring it a quicker, more ruthless death than even the Sand Pest. An inquisitor, charged by the powers that be with solving impossible problems by pitiless means. A man known to some as the white snake of the Capital...
