    Summary

    Simon didn’t expect his savior to be exactly his type.

    What a welcome sight. Even if this stupidly handsome man ends up being evil, or working for the C.O.I, at least he’d die looking at something good.

    or

    Grace and Rocky find Simon's ship floating in deep space on their way to Erid.

    UPDATE: This fic has been peer reviewed by a NASA engineer who has approved of the science!

    Summary

    In 1403, Sigismund of Luxembourg was found murdered in his bedchamber within Sedletz Monastery. Later that year, King Wenceslas was restored to his rightful place on the Bohemian throne.

    In 1404, Pribyslavitz burned.

    Now, five years on, something haunts the forests north of Talmberg. Tales differ from town to town, but those whispered in Uzhitz tell of a beast unlike any Hans had ever hunted before. What he finds stalking those dark woods will threaten everything he knows - about life, himself, and the nature of both men and beasts.

    Summary

    "Earlier you wanted to say something."

    It wasn't a question, but Henry received no reply. He was in no rush, though, and a leisurely man often had at least a facsimile of leverage.

    Ducking under some foliage, Hans lied, "I don't know what you're talking about."

    "You're an awful liar, sir."

    "As if you're any better yourself."

    "I am a better liar."
    ...
    After the events of Suchdol, Henry and Hans find themselves at an impasse, neither willing to start the conversation pertaining to the newest aspect of their relationship. The awkward distance set as a result takes almost a week's time, a young girl's quest, a day in the woods, her missing ram, and a fist fight to resolve.

    Summary

    Hans never liked sharing. It just didn’t come naturally to him. Ownership did, and dominion, and defending what was his, by blade and blood. As lords were meant to do. He didn’t like asking for help, either. Or asking for anything. Demanding, maybe. But not asking. Certainly not pleading. So when he’d found himself doing both — asking, and sharing — it forced him to consider just how strange a shape he’d contorted himself into.

    Hans asks Black Bartosch for a lesson. Bartosch is a patient, hands-on teacher.

    Summary

    “That bastard!” Hans called and shrugged off his uncle’s hand where it had kept him from toppling over the balcony. “He struck Henry when he was already down!”

    Hans watches his champion fight in the tournament.
