    Summary

    You are out of place and out of your element. You are sent to tend to your grandmother until the changing of the guards—just until your parents arrive. Until then, you endure the ancient cold, the dead air, the suffocating stillness of Germany. There's no Wi-Fi, no television and you hardly speak the language.

    But the forest whispers. The floorboards creak. And it's so dark and cold. And you are so, so, so tired. And you don't know why. You're so tired you can't explain why things go missing. Why the window opens itself at night. Why you keep seeing a towering shadow through a sleep-filled haze at night. Why you sometimes feel the mattress shift beneath your body, but you can't find enough strength to wake.

    And when Kortac Forces flood the town, Oma stops letting you out. She nails your window shut and writes to your parents immediately to come. Her voice trembles when they come to the door, and she tells you not to make a sound. To hide. To be still.

    But it's too late.

    Because he is already watching you.

    And hunting you.

    And you are running out of places to hide.

    Summary

    After your brother was killed under the command of newly appointed Colonel Caleb Xia, you swore you'd never forgive the man who returned from the mission when your brother did not. But when you're forcibly reassigned as his second-in-command, you're pulled into a cold war of secrets and bloodstained power plays.

    Assigned to spy on the colonel by the same institution that decorated your brother's grave with empty honours, you find yourself caught between two monsters, one who watches from above, and one who stands too close. But there's more to Caleb than perceived cruelty. He’s calculating, obsessive, and far too interested in what lies beneath your controlled fury. The closer you get, the more you begin to wonder: Is this grief? Hatred? Or the start of something far darker?

    “You may find this hard to believe,” she said with a bemused little smile, “but I’ve never been served tea by a skeleton before.”

    “He’s quite precise, isn’t he?” Emmrich replied, taking a sip. “Ah, brewed to perfection once more, Manfred.”

    Summary

    Spite is never quiet. A constant commentary rattling in his mind. It became a comfort in the Ossuary and maybe it still is. Not enough time has passed for him to decide. But when Rook steps through the pantry door, his short silence traded for her company is welcome. That he knows for certain.

    Summary

    "Smells different," Spite commented, glaring at Lucanis as though her scent were his fault. "Like caramel. Soft." His mouth split in a grin. "She wants you. Us. Wake her!"

    "No!" The word escaped Lucanis before he could keep it in. "Leave her be, Spite. Let her sleep."

    The demon was wrong. Had to be wrong. Letting himself believe that Rook wanted him was too dangerous for both of them. Spite was his only possible future, and he couldn't afford to hope for anything more...

    Summary

    “She’s in no danger,” he assured them. “The gifts of a Reaper are channelled through a place of deep sorrow and grief where one should not dwell indefinitely: she is merely exhausted, and in light of this ordeal coming to an end, her body and mind are insisting upon rest and recuperation for a time. I shall go with her to find a room and get her settled in.”

    Takes place immediately following the ending of Act 3 and features Emmrich and Amina taking a moment to themselves after all is said and done. Emmrich takes care of his beloved Reaper, and following a brief discussion about their respective plans for the future, she returns the favour.

    Summary

    The hour was late, and the thought of disturbing her nagged with apprehension. Surely she didn't require his company, nor his consolation, when she had such a treasured, sororal bond with Neve. Yet he found himself taking the long walk down the corridor to her quarters nonetheless.

    'Perhaps reminiscing of home will offer a welcome distraction, if only for a short while.' He assured himself. 'A comfort that I am uniquely disposed to provide.'

    All thoughts of Nevarran eccentricities and their hopeful nostalgia halted as he arrived at her door. It greeted him with an alarming sound.

    Summary

    “My memories from before the nautiloid are…compromised. Though, this was certainly enlightening,” she said, tossing his diary onto the table.
    Gortash watched as the papers fluttered around where the book landed before dragging his eyes back to hers. “You don’t remember,” he rasped, his posture visibly wilting.

    Oneshot with soft Gortash and Durge.

    Summary

    After enduring Abdirak's penance and receiving the blessing of Loviatar, Tav wonders if there might be more they could learn from the priest.

     

    "Your masterful hand gave me pleasure within the pain that I will struggle to forget." You step close to him and sink to your knees, looking up at him with hungry eyes. "Please, allow me to show you my thanks, if you are amenable?"

     

    "I am more than amenable to your thanks, my sweet child. I have been travelling for many, many months and it has been some time since I have felt so sensually connected to the gift of pain."

     

    An alternate path where Abdirak joins the camp and teaches Tav the ways of Loviatar.
