Summary
The fire crackled low. Rain whispered at the glass. Somewhere between the flicker of the oil lamp and the quiet ache in both their bones, Dismas turned slightly—just enough to face Reynauld.
And for a second—just a second—they both leaned in.
The world didn’t shift. The sky didn’t crack open. But something small and wordless passed between them, sharp as a heartbeat. Closer than they’d been in years. Close enough to kiss, if either of them had been braver.
But they weren’t. Not yet.
Dismas blinked, exhaled through his nose, and leaned back with a faint scoff.
“Hell of a thing,” he muttered, pretending to stare at the ceiling.
Reynauld didn’t ask what he meant. He just nodded, slow and knowing.
“Yeah,” he said. “It is.”

Summary
Blaidd couldn't help but stare with morbid fascination.
The Tarnished bolted out the stony entrance of the First Steps and barreled towards a Tree Sentinel with nothing but a loincloth and a club. Needless to say, the poor lad was immediately flattened into a shower of blood and grace. Minutes later, the same stubborn Tarnished scurried out the cave with club raised, ready to give it another go.

Summary
In wine, lies truth.
A rather jarring application of the ancient saying occurs on the rooftop of Cherryton Academy, between a young Bengal tiger and Dall sheep who once hated each other. What started as a picnic to celebrate nursing the chick back to health ended as a shared kiss between the two drunk animals.
Sure, the kiss was nice; Bill and Pina both liked it.
Unfortunately, night doesn't last forever, and the next morning, it's time to clean up this can of worms.

Summary
"There is something I must return to Malenia. The will that was once her own. The dignity, the sense of self, that allowed her to resist the call of the scarlet rot."
Sorrowful at Millicent's passing, a rather wise Tarnished makes an attempt to fulfil his protégée's last wish.
[Functionally complete; presently in an epilogue in the Realm of Shadow]
