Summary
After the fall of Marlas, Laurent is shipped to Akielos in chains, stripped of his name and forced into captivity within the enemy palace. Haunted by his brother’s death at the hands of Prince Damianos, Laurent wants nothing more than to escape or see Damianos ruined. Damianos is a conqueror and a barbarian, everything Laurent was raised to despise. Yet in a court ruled by secrets, Laurent discovers that Damianos, the last person he ever expected, may be the only one he can trust as he fights to reclaim his crown in Vere.

Summary
Laurent is a ragdoll, pulled down into the dark at improbable speed. The lift it makes in his stomach is odd, like the giddy drop on a rollercoaster. A moment of elation, perhaps, before he dies.
He breaks the surface.
His gasping mouth now pulls in air, his feet firmly on the rock bottom of the spring and legs holding him up unshakably. Water streams from his head, down his body, as though a bucket had been dumped over his head. He reaches up to push his sopping hair from his eyes.
“Naiad,” a voice says.
Laurent stills. Psychological collapse should be allowed, by the universe, to be a solitary affair, especially when it happens in a state of complete undress. It’s unfair on a cosmic level that Laurent should be happened upon by a stranger in his current condition.
---
On holiday with his brother in Ios, Laurent bathes in a hot spring. Unfortunately, he drowns. Even more unfortunately, when he surfaces somehow, he finds himself thrust back in time. Dropped into the middle of a mythologised ancient war for the Akielon throne, he is determined to get back to the modern day - even after ending up kidnapped (or perhaps rescued) by the rightful King, Damianos.

Summary
“What is his crime?” Nikandros asked.
“I don’t know,” the girl said. “Some Veretian Lord came here throwing his money around and demanding the guy be locked up. He said he’d come back to deal with him later but…” Clearly not.
“When did this happen?”
“Not long after I was sent here.” So after the battle of Marlas then.
