    Summary

    In Hatari, Queen Nailah had spoken of other lands, continents thought lost to the great flood. Ike wanted to see them. He traced imaginary landscapes over Soren’s back at night, the patterns of his fingers making rivers and lakes, the line of Soren’s spine mountains.

    “We’ll need maps, if there are any to be found,” Soren said. “Food and water. Logic dictates that we won’t speak the language, but everyone speaks the language of gold. Ike, are you listening to me?”

    “Sure,” Ike yawned. “Or we can make like the hawk tribe and wing it.”

    “Ike, I love you more than anything or anyone else in this world,” Soren said. “That is why I refuse to allow you to starve to death in some pathetic dinghy in the middle of the ocean.”

    --

    Ike and Soren's journey is interrupted when Soren is injured by a cursed sword. With Soren poisoned and running out of time, Ike embarks on a desperate quest. Stranded in Goldoa while Soren recovers, Soren struggles with the truth about his birth, Rajaion's sacrifice, and both sides of his lineage, while Ike finds himself conflicted on how he should feel when it comes to Soren's birth family.

    Summary

    As the Crimean Liberation Army continue their fight against Daein, the self-imposed distance between Soren and Ike grows. That is until the only thing keeping them apart - Soren's secret he will do anything to hide - is taken advantage of to a nearly fatal degree.

    Soren wishes that the book that had shattered his whole world had mentioned that the Branded had the same weaknesses as their laguz ancestors.

    Summary

    Felix hated that Miklan’s final act would be unforgettable. That the memory of him would be burned on not only the minds of Sylvain, Ingrid, Dimitri, and himself, but that he’d managed to make himself a legacy among their entire class. It was disgusting how such an unconscionable piece of garbage had managed to weave himself into the fabric of their life at the academy, the one place where Sylvain should have been able to remain separated from him.

    Now, in the aftermath of battle, Sylvain is a hollowed out version of himself. It's concerning. Felix doesn't know how to reach him. Nobody does.

    ----

    Felix tries to clean up the mess that Miklan left behind.
