    Summary

    For the first time in his life of indulgence, Hans has found something he can never have, Henry. In a stroke of genius, the young lord comes up with a game that allows the two of them to enjoy each other's company more freely; by pretending he is the god Apollo and Henry is the mortal Adonis. But what happens when the young lord's feelings grow too big for his body, and Henry becomes more than a friend and an infrequent lover?

    Summary

    The greed of men knows no bounds. Nothing is sacred to them. They take whatever they can, and care not for those from whomst they take.

    Hans has been kept in the darkness for years. He does not think he will ever escape from his prison. But one Lord Henry Kobyla of Skalitz vows to save whatever creature is locked away in the darkness of Trosky Castle.

    Summary

    "But I'm not just asking for myself," Hans continued, quieter. "If people start to wonder about the lack of an heir, it won't be me they turn on, we both know that. Jitka's reputation—she'll be worse than ruined when the gossip starts to come."

    Or, when the heir to Rattay still can't sire a child one year into marriage, he comes begging for Henry's help. Henry thinks the task is simple, if insane: shoot a few loads in Jitka, then make like the wind so nobody suspects him.

    Unfortunately for Hans, nothing is nearly ever so simple.

    Summary

    Henry Skalitz knows fire season at Yosemite National Park is not something to take lightly from his years as a ranger stationed in the park. Smoke on the horizon is the first sign that everything can change in an instant.

    Hans Capon was never meant to stay. A wealthy donor who thinks the world revolves around him, he’s a temporary presence in a place built on endurance.

    But as the valley heats up and the line between duty and desire thins, Henry finds himself protecting more than the land he loves. And when fire finally comes, both men must decide what remains after smoke and ash.

    Summary

    Thirteen years after the fall of Skalitz, Henry returns to a world changed—and to Hans Capon, who has changed even more, a shadow of the man Henry once knew. What begins as a quiet reunion becomes a slow, painful reckoning: of choices made, futures lost, and the kind of love that never truly dies.
    It is a story of quiet devotion, of one man returning not to reclaim, but to remind. Together they help each other find meaning again—not through grand gestures, but through presence, memory, and the courage to mourn.

    Summary

    Sir Hans Capon has grown into a lonely man. Sad, bitter, and far from the happy, mindless Lordling he used to be; having never found anyone to ever truly love him.

    Until Rattay gets a new Captain of the Guards. Henry of Skalitz- quiet, hardened by years of endless battles; having never met anyone to love after losing his home.

    They meet. And, throughout the months, they bring each other back to life again.

    Summary

    “Oh, this is exciting. I’m excited. I’ve never been around such a pure being before.”

    “You didn’t even know until moments ago. And now it’s a novelty.”

    “I like novelty,” Hans says, and a shiver builds in Henry’s spine at his words. “Keeps things interesting.”

    Normally, Henry did too. But now, there is too much new. This new pressure building, this new tension, this new awareness of Hans’s hair slipping over his pillow as he turns again, this new energy that clenches Henry’s hands into fists. He doesn’t know what to do with all this. All these new feelings.

     

    First hunt, first kill, first siege, first friend, first fight, first reconciliation, first kiss. First time taking a risk. First time watching it pay off. A series of first times for both Henry and Hans.

    Summary

    Hansry - seen through Mutt's eyes.

    After the events of KCD2, Henry and Hans spend time together at the Devil’s Den. Their relationship is still largely a secret, but there’s no hiding from Mutt, the best boy in Bohemia. Of course, he doesn’t fully understand why his two masters playfight so often or go on hunting trips without hunting. Still, Mutt is just happy to be by their side – no thoughts, only bliss.

    Summary

    It is not for King Wenceslas, Henry thinks quietly. But Sir Fülöp need not know where Henry’s allegiance truly lies. Or perhaps it is not unexpected of a peasant really that his fealty should be only to his liege-lord, and that wherever he may lead a page may follow. Henry knows Sir Hans’ heart though and trusts his lord to lead him on a fair and honorable path. And it is with that knowledge that Henry bows his head—part gratitude, part obedience.

    Summary

    After everything, Henry and Hans find some space for themselves away from everyone. There's a lot of work to do if they want it to be habitable by winter, which is lucky, because Henry needs the distraction.

    Distraction from the dreams, which are terrible.

    And the thoughts, which are worse.

    Summary

    “He’s testing you, not torturing you. Trials are part of it and He tests those He sees potential in.”

    Hans raised his arms theatrically, nearly toppling over.

    “Well, then I pass! Hooray for me! Survived trial by shit, blood, and political obligations. Can I go home how?”

    “Perhaps,” Godwin said carefully, “He hasn’t found what he’s looking for yet. Survival isn’t always the goal.”

    “I wish He’d just tell me, then. Because this is…” he sighed mid-sentence, suddenly feeling very tired and small, “it’s fucking exhausting.”


    There were Greeks inside Hans' head, and no one had ever taught him how to deal with them.

    Summary

    For twenty years, Henry of Skalitz was forgotten—buried in darkness, bound in rusted chains, waiting for rescue that never came.

    Hans Capon never stopped looking for Henry—never stopped chasing ghosts, never stopped losing hope, never stopped failing. And now, his son has done what he could not.

    Heinrich expected to find a prisoner. Instead, he found a ruin of a man—too frail to stand, too lost to recognize his own name. He takes Henry, carries him into the world he once knew.

    Henry has been found. But can men so thoroughly broken be saved?
