Summary
“Look at me, child,” the Tsaritsa murmurs, and runs her fingers down Tartaglia’s cheek. He meets her silver eyes and feels lighter somehow. “Would you travel to Liyue for me? Answer.”
“Yes. Anywhere,” he answers.
“Would you claim Morax’s gnosis for me? Would you slay him if need be? Answer.”
“Yes,” he breathes, giddy at the prospect.
She grips his face, fingers like rusty nails.
“I have sent a proposal of your hand in marriage to Morax’s court. It has already been accepted. You sail for Liyue in one week. The beast will wed the beast, creep in close, and wait to strike. Do you understand? Answer.”
“Of course, my queen,” he hears his voice say, but his mind says, What?
~
Tartaglia is wed to the Sunset Emperor of Liyue.

Summary
Kazuha first met Tomokazu at the turn of the season. The heavy rays of the sun had finally let up, and all of nature had begun to relax into the red jacket of fall.
~
“Hello, sir!” the man called. “I’m sorry to sneak up on you like that, I saw you practicing and couldn’t resist.”He was taller than Kazuha by a head and some change, which remained intimidating even as he smiled disarmingly. He spoke politely but with a provincial accent that Kazuha couldn’t quite place. His clothes were old but worn neatly and clearly cared for, save for a tear in the shoulder of his haori. A wanderer like himself, perhaps?
“You’ve been following me for some time, haven’t you?” Kazuha asked.

A recollection of five seasons spent in the company of a most precious friend. -

Summary
"I don’t want to cuddle any more."
Kaveh’s first instinct was to laugh at the sound of such a childish word in Alhaitham’s mouth, and make him say other silly words, like canoodling and hanky-panky. But then the actual meaning of the sentence caught up to him, and he went cold all over.
~
Kaveh and Alhaitham have a disagreement over sleeping arrangements that begs a simple solution. -

Summary
He would have been happy never to cross paths with Wriothesley ever again. Still, he feels an itch in the back of his throat that he associates with the desire to say something honest. The Traveler's influence, no doubt, and therefore something he can’t bring himself to resent. So, he decides, he can afford to make one last stop to get it out of his system before taking his precious siblings and leaving this lonely death trap behind forever.
~
Lyney is going to do his best to ensure that the denouement in this wretched episode of his life is a satisfying one.

Summary
A throne without a king, a hero without his sword, a knight without his love.
Hans’s secret is out. His world is in ruins. And Otto von Bergow is still reaching for power with both hands.
Sent to Moravia by Hanush and Radzig, Hans's mission seemed clear: feasts, speeches, careful smiles. But it’s a knife’s edge and Hans must fight, scheme and bargain for allies without the one person he trusts more than anyone by his side. Instead, he's accompanied by his future wife. Will sharp-eyed Jitka become his shield… or the blade at his throat?
Hans might have to stand on his own two feet now, but Henry left him more than his beloved sword. He left him a promise to return—and Hans’s blacksmith’s boy is a man of his word.When Bohemia’s fate hangs by a thread, will Lady Fortuna finally smile at them?
This fic follows Of Lilies and Lions and concludes the Lord of the Distant Isles Trilogy. Updates weekly (regular update day is Friday, plus occasional surprise chapters).

Summary
Hans Capon has no shortage of enemies who threaten his greatest secret. Will his undoing be a meddling uncle, a bride who knows too much, or the Royal Chamberlain with his clever schemes?
Leaving the ashes of Suchdol behind, Hans and Henry ride east—eager to outrun duty, wedding bells, and perhaps even Lady Fortuna herself.
But a trail of stolen silver and a missing horse soon drag them back into a war that refuses to end, even without a king on the throne.
How long can Hans and Hal keep their love hidden? And when it comes to light—will it be enough to hold them together, or will the world tear them apart?
This fic follows Lord of the Distant Isles but can be read on its own.
