Summary
“What do you want from me? Where are you taking me?” Kaveh hissed through gritted teeth, struggling against the grip. “I just told you, I’m a mere architect!”
Childe gave a light huff, lips curling into an infuriatingly innocent smile. “Wouldn’t you like to know?”
Kaveh’s face was drained of color. There was no escape. No room to bargain. He was at their mercy.
“Come on, you don’t have to look at me like that,” Childe added casually, waving a dismissive hand. “I just thought of a perfect way for you to repay me.”

Summary
“I am proposing a deal, Alhaitham,” Nahida mutters, catching Alhaitham’s attention once again. The tall man looks over to her and raises an eyebrow, “And what would that be?”
The smile that irks Alhaitham once again paints over the Archon’s lips — and this time, he knows it’s meant to piss him off.
“I will approve of your resignation in exchange for the Aaru Village’s approval of the developmental plans.”
Since the Dendro Archon is as kind as she is wise, she decided to give Alhaitham one last quest - which, once finished, would give him the freedom to return to his easy and normal life as a scribe. Alhaitham, forced to abide by the words of his Archon, sets out to the desert where he pretends to be a traveler, to devise a plan to get the desert dwellers to concur to the Akademiya’s plans. The quest turns thorny when he meets a dancer with scarlet eyes in Caravan Ribat.

Summary
Kaveh’s tattoos are praised by celebrities and magazines alike, but somewhere along the path to his success, the meaning bled out of his art. Then, after ten long years, Alhaitham rides back into his life on a motorcycle - rugged, quick-witted, and infuriatingly unforgettable.
With love laced into the ink Kaveh had long since stopped believing in, something beautiful finally begins to take shape once more.
It was too immaculate, really. The sleek countertops, glass partitions, and impossibly white walls gleamed under soft, ambient lighting like they’d never known the comfort of a chaos Kaveh had lived with his entire life. Every surface was made of the kind of material that rejected fingerprints and resisted clutter - sanitized, both physically and emotionally.
Though the district his new studio was in was posh and high-end, it was surprisingly devoid of a single decent coffee shop. Perhaps the elitist locals had never actually tasted good coffee and simply mistook bitterness in a designer cup for depth - much like their conversations.
So far, Kaveh had choked down three lattes and a macchiato that tasted like lukewarm regret with a splash of oat milk.

Summary
As Kaveh sorts the jugs into two groupings—one for the punch bowl and one for the drain—a bell chimes, clattering against the front door.
“We’re about to close,” Tighnari snaps at the entering customer.
Kaveh springs to his feet and positions himself behind the register.
“How can I help—”
You.
The customer is halfway to the counter when their eyes lock, and time stops. The man’s shoulders stiffen. Heterochromatic eyes—teal and orange, fire and water, familiar as the breath in Kaveh’s mouth, as the freckle above his left knee—widen with shock and a little disbelief. His mouth drops open, slack, and Kaveh thinks, I don’t think I’ve ever seen him speechless before.
Oh, gods.
Kaveh thought he’d never see Alhaitham again.
After a year without contact, Alhaitham wanders into Kaveh's coffee shop.
Kaveh wants nothing to do with him — he already has enough problems. But Alhaitham's determined to give him just one more, and perhaps solve a few in the process.

Summary
"Unlike you mortals, we, the divine, do not return," Nabu Malikata replied, her voice now a mere breath across their thoughts, yet clear as a bell. "We bloom but once, and then our bloom fades forever."
"But isn't Kaveh...?" Alhaitham began, the pieces starting to click into place, a chilling realization dawning on his face.
"My reincarnation, yes," the Goddess confirmed, the sadness in her voice deepening, "And that is where the tapestry of fate began to fray. His birth in this world was a mistake, a ripple in the calm waters of destiny."
"What...?" Cyno breathed, the word caught in his throat.
"The Heavenly Principles did not favor this. He became a torn page in their book," Nabu Malikata explained, a profound sorrow now lacing her every word, like wilting petals. "Why else do you think that his life was so full of unfortunate events?"
WE'RE BACK BABYY!!!
