    Summary

    Thin bones cracked between her teeth, their scant marrow dancing around her tongue. Raphael's forced smile warped into a look of clear concern. An arm moved towards her and its marrow would be incomparable, fatty and smooth like silk on the skin. To feel th—e hand touched her shoulder and she heard his words.

    The Wandering Beast of rumor and legend stalks the wilderness of Leicester. On his way home from a job in the aftermath of the war, Raphael encounters it, but discovers quickly that the beast is an old friend—Marianne. With their lives in each other's hands, they set off to find aid for Marianne, wherever they might find it. All around them are the fresh scars of the war—reminders of the past, and traces of a future that never was.

    Set after the end of Crimson Flower. Can be read independently of other works in the series.

    Summary

    „I will walk,“ Flint interrupted her objections. „You have just maneuvered yourself into a position of considerable power on this island, and now you have gone and cast aside a man the island admires and fears. It won't do for you to be seen sharing a horse with me like a wounded young girl.“

    Eleanor stared up at him; a wounded young girl full of curses, with a rifle resting like a sleeping babe in her arm.

    [Nassau, 1708. Eleanor Guthrie remembers a moment in the life of Lieutenant McGraw. Captain Flint doesn't.]

    Summary

    And yet, Edelgard had asked her to dance. Marianne barely remembered hearing the question, or seeing Edelgard's hand outstretched, and didn't at all remember saying yes. But the dancing, the dancing, the two of them together, blue swirling into red… that was burned into her memory.

    It was just a way to welcome her to the Black Eagles, of course. But she'd asked.

    A few months into the war, Marianne—who joined the Black Eagles late in the school year—is sent by her adoptive father to Garreg Mach to negotiate House Edmund's support of the Empire. To accomplish her goals, she has to contend with both her insecurity and her burgeoning feelings for Edelgard.

    Summary

    Mercedes's life has taken a winding course, and she now finds herself on her estranged brother's heels, desperate to keep up. Edelgard, having emerged from the shadows of the Empire, must choose carefully the lights that shall guide her.

    Mercedes vocalized the incantation of a familiar healing spell, but several additional notes followed—it was nearly complex enough to be a song in its own right, but her voice didn't waver to Edelgard's ears. What granted her such serenity in the midst of a living, waking, raging hell? What allowed her to be a beacon of peace and salvation in such pestilent darkness?
