    Summary

    You figure the kid’ll be long gone, but he’s only a few feet away, collapsed against a wall. He’s curled up, pale eyes so wide behind his fringe of dirty blond hair they almost look blank. His face flushes crimson, but the rest of his skin is ice-white and bloodless, sheened with feverish sweat. His cheeks are pitted, hollow.

    “Saints preserve us,” you mutter, rubbing your aching head.

    Alone and ill on the streets of Fhirdiad, Dimitri finds help from an unexpected quarter. Five years later, he returns to repay the favor.

    Summary

    “I’ve been reading up on Church law,” Professor Byleth says, turning a few pages back in the crumbling book in front of her. There’s another ribbon on the page where she stops. “There’s a lot of it.”

    Well, that much is certainly true. There is a lot of it. Annette wonders if Professor Byleth wants advice about making study cards, but probably not—definitely not, if this is somehow about Annette’s father.

    In which it turns out divorce is legal in the Church of Seiros, and Byleth asks Annette whether to tell Annette’s mother about the option.

    Summary

    What does it mean, to sing in the language of those
    who have killed your mother,
    would kill her again?
    - ?

    Most people don't know this about him, but Luke is actually trilingual. There's Greek, his strongest, English, his most used, and then Japanese, the one he clings to like a dying man to a lifeboat.

    Zeus barely kept track of his own kids.
    Surely, he wasn’t keeping track of Hermes.’
    .
    Or, Hermes enters nesting season and it becomes EVERYONE'S problem.
