Summary
Saving a kingdom was the job of gallant heralds and magnificent princes, not maids whose lives revolved around the scullery. But the heralds cannot save you for they cannot see the peril, and the princes will try to stop you for they are deaf to the truth. So in the end, it must be you. After all, you too were born to rule.

Summary
“This crown on your head is really weird! You don’t have to wear it all the time, do you?”
“What?” He reached up to touch the crown himself, their fingers brushing. “No, just for now and for the important stuff. Top-of-the-line Kingly Business, patented and all.” A pause. “You’ll be getting one too, in the spring. Or so I hear.”
Or, an abridged version of the coronation of the new King of Derse after the fall of the Highest Lord, minus all the stuffy boring bits and told by the Princess of Prospit. A small installment taking place three years after the very end of Of Royal Forge.

Summary
To believe that all is peaceful when beasts of legend have been felled is the presumption of fools. Threat does not cease. There are the usual things to be wary of, the radical changes that come with new orders and the passage of years, but sometimes there are other things – terrible things that fill in the dark spaces where the beasts once stood. And though Life may weigh you down, still you stand to challenge them and beat them back into oblivion. It is what the Queen does.

Summary
*ON INDEFINITE HIATUS*
The changing of the guard is as inevitable as the advance and retreat of seasons, but in the court of Skaia it is new and strange. In the face of encroaching mortality, spirits rise from their long-abandoned graves for one final sermon, to make sense of past echoes scarred within the earth. The snakes who left them are long dead, and yet they eat their own tails as the beginning meets the end.
