    Summary

    The two people appeared from behind the small building, scarves wrapped around their faces to ward off the cold, and Lyra beamed at them, keen to make a good impression on her new colleagues. She was about to take a step towards the pair when their dæmons appeared behind them, and Lyra’s mouth could do nothing but fall open, her heart starting to rattle in her chest as her gaze swept over a snow leopard and a golden monkey.

    She blinked a few times, her breaths becoming harsh rasps, but each close of her eyes only served to bring them closer to her, until she could see each black spot that dotted the snow leopard’s silver coat. “No,” she breathed, and Pan was as frozen in shock as she was. “No, no, no. It can’t be – it can’t – ”

    (Five years after the end of The Amber Spyglass, Lyra receives a mysterious summons to the North.)

    Summary

    “Your mother is going to kill me someday,” Father says, flopping down onto the sofa next to her and picking up the newspaper.
    Like, that’s an acceptable image to plant in the impressionable head of his young daughter.
    “And when she does, it’ll be up to you to avenge me,” he says with the same tone, like he’s discussing sport with the boring men Mother has over for tea.

    Summary

    It was the very first time that one of Clarke's paintings made it into a gallery. And it wasn't just any gallery, it was the most prestigious one in the country. Rich people from all over the world were coming there to auction on artwork for their mansions and penthouses. Clarke met an older woman who bid an insane amount of money on her painting. And won. Intrigued by the stranger, Clarke allowed herself to be taken back to her hotel room.

    Summary

    A re-imagining from the Pilot:

    Clarke Griffin is rudely taken from her cell in the middle of the night only to be forced into a room with the man she hates the most - the man who floated her father - Thelonius Jaha.

    He then informs her that she will be sent to Earth almost immediately to determine whether or not the ground is survivable again in the hopes of saving their people from certain doom.

    Alone.

    On top of it all, the fate of 98 other adolescent prisoners rests on her succeeding in this mission.
    In other words: she's screwed.

    Before she knows it, she's hurtling towards the planet at top speed with no control over the contraption that's presumably carrying her to her death.

    After she somehow manages to survive the crash landing, she finds herself alone in unknown lands struggling to fight through the pain of her extensive injuries.

    Only, she's not alone. Far from it, in fact.

    Who are these strange inhabitants whose language is so different from her own?
    Why does she get the feeling she's just walked into a much bigger problem than the one she left behind on the Ark?

    More importantly: how is she going to survive?
