Summary
Bozhena watches how this boy clings to the corpse and worries she'll have to ask the knacker to dig a third grave in the morning. She's not seen grief like this in such a long time, but she's tended a great many bedsides and soothed the backs of husbands weeping over wives lost to the childbed. She'd recognize the wound of lost love deaf and blind on Judgement Day.
A submission for the "From the Den, with Love" fanzine

Summary
Henry doesn’t allow himself a final look.
He wouldn’t call himself a superstitious man, by any means, but the thought of turning to watch Suchdol recede over his shoulder feels like it would be courting disaster. It’s foolish, really. Henry knows the fortress has endured trebuchet fire and hand cannons, its walls aren’t going to crack from a distant glance, but he can’t bring himself to turn his head.

Summary
It had been a while since he'd last seen Verso—eight months, seven days, and ten hours—and even now, grief ate at him for what could have been. Gustave missed the feeling of his fingers in his hair, and he missed the sound of Verso's laughter; he missed falling asleep in Verso's arms and the heated kisses they once shared. A shuddering exhale slipped past his lips as he checked the time once more, the second hand ticking away his life like a heartbeat in his palm.
Or: On opposite sides of a silent but growing war, Gustave comes to deliver a warning to Verso.
