Summary
The distant look in the Mage’s eyes snapped to the gap of the roof, to the near-silent tuttering of other, watchful machines down below. “No, it doesn’t matter. You will be safe up here. It should be simple enough, to lay protective wards into the earth of the tower. I won’t let anything happen to you,” he vowed.
Promises held no impetus in this world, where nothing happened, nothing changed.
The Machine reset its position on its knees and replaced its hands on the weapon of a fallen era. I can’t stop you from making useless promises, can I?
Somehow, without doing anything, the Machine had gained a visitor and protector.

Summary
The first thing Shen Yuan did upon transmigrating was shave that monstrosity of a mustache. What was Mu Qingfang thinking, Shen Yuan wondered, glaring at himself in the mirror?! Well, he thought, it’s too late now.
He was now Mu Qingfang, peak lord of Qian Cao peak. He might as well get used to calling himself that now, so.

Summary
Time held no sway in the Underworld. Or, it shouldn’t have. In retrospect, perhaps the feeling of morning that swept through Patroclus when he roused himself on that final day should have been the first clue.
Or: Hades II but make it about Patroclus.
