    Summary

    The reason why he's here was simply on a whim. He's heard they were selling miniature portraits of the late Marchioness of Neuschwanstein, Shuri von Neuschwanstein.

    They were selling miniature portraits of the daughter of God, the noblest lady in the empire, Nora found it laughable.

    If she was a daughter of God then she deserved so much better than this. Better than children who berated her to the point that she cried when no one was looking.

    That's how he met her. Crying all by herself out of site so as to not burden anyone. She was hurt(ing), just like him.

    They were both hurt(ing).

    There were people who Nora recognized as middle-class citizens by their clothing and he saw a few noble ladies. Apparently, a trend was going on that it was considered 'good' to own a portrait or a miniature one of the deceased Marchioness to show support for the Imperial Family and the empire.

    Just like one would own artwork depicturing a saint or the Virgin Mary. Or how one would own a bible or prayer beads.

    Summary

    Envy is a powerful, fickle thing – right up there next to fate. It is not that surprising, then, that the Black Wolf, the Golden Lion and the most beautiful woman of the Capital should come to join forces under its banner to avenge a woman who was partially killed by it.

    Summary

    Unwilling to stand by and watch as his son keeps drifting away from him, Albrecht makes up his mind to spend Christmas with Nora and his family in order to make amends. And since the key to unlocking Nora's bruised heart seems to lay with his daughter-in-law and their son, Albrecht supposes it would be best to start from there.

    Or, in which Albrecht tries to be a good grandfather, and succeeds against all 'odds'.

    // Excerpt //

    "... Are you glowing?" Albrecht asks, genuinely curious.

    Michael just blinks up at him – down, actually, given the way he is currently hovering above Albrecht's head – before answering on a tentative tone.

    "Mommy does, too. Daddy says not to do it after dinner, though."

    Summary

    He kneels on the ground at the white figure's feet, and can practically hear Heaven's appalled inhale -- the fiercest martial god Hua Cheng kneeling before the greatest calamity in the three realms! The sun should sooner fall from the sky!

    --But these matters did not concern Hua Cheng. If he was before His Highness Xie Lian, then ghost or god or otherwise, he'd go on his knees for him every time.
