Summary
Wei Wuxian wakes up as a god of death. He remembers things not at all in the beginning, and slowly later. It's a thousand years later when he meets his old friends and enemies.
Characters from various Chinese myths and literary works will appear here. I haven't bothered with the chronology- I've kind of just pulled in elements of various stories I like without specifying time periods. After all MDZS doesn't bother doing so either, lmao

Summary
When Wei Wuxian regains consciousness, he is in a bed. A real, proper bed, not the slab he called a bed in his cave in the Burial Mounds.
Jiang Cheng is glowering above him.
Wei Wuxian doesn't die during the siege of the Burial Mounds. Rather, he is captured in secret and confined at Lotus Pier.

Summary
“Am I dead?” Jingliu gasps.
“No.” Ruan Mei pries Jingliu’s mouth open, holding the tongue down with her thumb. “You are so delightfully alive. And now I have the pleasure of putting you back together.”
(Or: Jingliu becomes Ruan Mei’s test subject.)

Summary
Blood for Fire, Fire for Blood.
House Targaryen owed its strength, its splendour, and its very survival to the dragons they rode. Seeing them as more than beasts of burden or tools of war, this tale seeks to give voice to the silent magic that kept the embers of Valyria burning long after the Doom. The dragons saw more clearly and deeply into the hearts of the exiles-turned-royals than any historical account could ever hope to, and were witness to the glories, tragedies and follies of House Targaryen. They were the Targaryens' greatest strength but became also their unacknowledged victims, doomed in the end by the pride and ambition of the very family that shared the blood of the dragon.
From the flight out of Valyria, through Conquest, Conciliation and Crisis until the very last lonely drake closes her eyes, we shall journey with each dragon, rider by rider, until the very end, which finds in itself another beginning;
when the night comes alive once more with the music of dragons.
