    Summary

    The integration between the Falconers and the forces of House Royce goes surprisingly well. Thjazi has to admit that a large part of that is not to the Royce themselves, as much as he adores his Nessa, but to General Davinos, who knows full well how to speak to soldiers and command their respect.

    Unfortunately, General Davinos does come with one problem, who is fourteen years old, apparently fearless, and hates Thjazi’s guts.

    "Azune. You gotta put it down for tonight, okay? You can pick it back up in the morning, but you really need to let it go for a night. You're going to have an apoplectic fit if you keep on like this."

    Summary

    Calm emotions is a spell he doesn’t need to pray for these days. The magic sits like honey at the roof of his mouth. He lets it unfurl with his breath, heat seeping into his cold fingers. The body shudders and stills. The only sound is his ragged breathing. “This is only going to last a minute,” Caduceus says. “And then it’s all going to come back. So I need you to breathe and look at me, okay? I’m not going to hurt you and you’re not going to hurt me.”

    The eyes blink. Once. Twice. Three times. “Cad?”

    “Yep. You’re good.”

    “I’m good?”

    “I like to think so. You’re certainly not bad. I’ve killed you before; I’d know.”

    (Kingsley is brought to the garden).

    Summary

    Here is what he cannot understand: Tidepeak is nearly impenetrable. The magical wards alone had taken decades to perfect, and they have been perfected. To say nothing of the way he's altered the tower's physicality—Master Ikithon himself had taken a full five minutes to break down the door, to hear Wensforth tell it, and he's considered having that information mounted on a plaque in his study.

    Even were some powerful being to breach his sanctum, an alarm would sound in Yussa's head the moment the first of the wards snapped, increasing in intensity with each subsequent spell sundered. He would know of an intruder before they even managed to intrude.

    Not the faintest bell of warning has sounded in his head. Not a single ward has fallen, not a single window breached.

    "Mow," says the trespasser, and he has no rebuttal.

    -

    In which one of the Widogast cats drops in on Yussa.
