    Summary

    In a world where lighteyes worship Odium, darkeyes and singers are reduced to a number and sold at auction. At the age of twenty-three, all lighteyes are required to buy a slave. Refusal means punishment or potential death.

    When Adolin turns twenty-three, he’s invited to his first auction, where he ends up with slave Nine-One-Five-Two, who he later finds out is named Kaladin.

    Everyone around him treats their slaves with the cruelty modeled by Odium himself. But Adolin can’t bring himself to do the same. What begins as small acts of kindness—acts Kaladin rejects—slowly grows into trust and something neither of them had anticipated: love.

    But when others notice how differently Adolin treats his slave, he’s forced to choose between getting away clean or suffering punishment for his defiance.

    And when it’s revealed that the Radiants aren’t gone after all, and that Kaladin may be involved… everything changes.

    ⊹˙⋆ ⛧ ⋆˙⊹ ⊹˙⋆ ⛧ ⋆˙⊹ ⊹˙⋆ ⛧ ⋆˙⊹ ⊹˙⋆ ⛧ ⋆˙⊹

    Adolin Kholin is forced to buy a slave. Kaladin is said slave. This is their love story with a whole lot of angst and heartbreak in the forefront.

    Summary

    Wit continued before he could interrupt, “What if there was a way to, maybe not stop Sadeas, but make it practically impossible for him to act on his threats? A way to not only shut down rumors about your House, your presumed insanity, your visions—but also the ones about why Adolin has been ignoring every marriage proposal he’s received? And, in the process, ensure Kaladin’s status as untouchable?”

    Dalinar’s stomach twisted. He had a bad feeling about this, “I don’t have time for this, Wit,” he said, “Speak plainly.”

    Wit leaned back in his chair. Without breaking eye contact, he said, “We betroth Kaladin to Adolin.”

    “You’re joking,” Dalinar said once his mouth regained its ability to form words.

    Silence stretched between them. Wit was not joking.

    Dalinar missed the person he was before this conversation.

    ⊹˙⋆ ⛧ ⋆˙⊹ ⊹˙⋆ ⛧ ⋆˙⊹ ⊹˙⋆ ⛧ ⋆˙⊹ ⊹˙⋆ ⛧ ⋆˙⊹

    What-If: Kaladin is Adolin’s betrothed instead of Shallan, but with a twist.

    P.S.: It was Wit’s idea.

    Summary

    Major spoilers of Part 1 of Sons of Tanavast Series!

    Look away now if you don't want to be spoiled -- I highly recommend reading Part 1 before this fic.

    This series replaces book 5 Wind & Truth. Major spoilers for book 4 Rhythm of War.

    -

    The saga continues;

    King of Alethkar, God of Honour and single father. Kaladin’s life came crashing down around him after swearing his fifth ideal. It was the hardest one yet and in the aftermath of the trauma can he recover or will he shatter? Who can he trust when Navani has turned against him, Kalak betrayed him and all of his friends just don’t understand.

    Struggling to cope with the grief Kaladin finds himself regressing as he lives a new and simple double life as a recruit. As it turns out Bridge twenty-three needed this new recruit just as much as he needed them.

    Meanwhile the desolation continues as Odium does not back down after the Honour shard was reforged. Instead, it is Vyre who hatches a plan to try to turn the war back into the favour of the enemy.

    Summary

    Kaladin gets caught out in the Everstorm during a battle. Leshwi saves his life when she could easily have taken him off the field for good.

    And then... she just keeps saving him. And Kaladin saves her. And something grows between them that's more than mutual respect and honor. Something that might jeopardize all the oaths he currently stands on.

    For even if they're on opposite sides of a war, how can he try to kill someone he loves?

    Summary

    “Oh no. No, no, no,” Adolin said. “You’ve been listening. You were listening in to our conversations about sex. What the hell is wrong with you?” His voice dropped lower. “I swear… if you’re planning to turn this into some grand magical tale you’ll spin for court intrigue or whatever—”

    “I’m not,” Wit snapped. He sounded almost… insulted. “I’m not going to mock this. I just—”

    “I believe he would like to volunteer,” a smooth, cheerful voice said.

    Both men turned.

    Wit’s entire face crumpled like someone had just shoved him off a cliff. “Design!” he hissed, eyes wide. “You’ve done it again! Spoiled my entire monologue!”

    ⊹˙⋆ ⛧ ⋆˙⊹ ⊹˙⋆ ⛧ ⋆˙⊹ ⊹˙⋆ ⛧ ⋆˙⊹ ⊹˙⋆ ⛧ ⋆˙⊹

    After Adolin discovers Kaladin’s secret fantasy, it takes time to help him see it’s nothing shameful—that Adolin loves him completely, and may even share the same desire.

    But finding someone they can trust with something so intimate proves harder than expected.

    Until someone neither of them had considered volunteers.

    Summary

    “I tried, Kaladin,” Amaram said. “I thanked you. I was going to give you a new life. But you couldn’t just take it, could you?”

    Kaladin’s mouth was dry. “Take the Blade. But don’t hurt him—”

    “Oh, I will take the Blade,” Amaram sneered. “But it’s not enough. The truth can’t get out. It must be believed that I killed the Shardbearer.”

    “You can lie. Say whatever you want—”

    “I’m sorry, but this is what happens when darkeyes forget their place.”

    NO!” Kaladin shouted.

    Amaram raised a hand.

    Two knives plunged into Adolin’s body.

    ⊹˙⋆ ⛧ ⋆˙⊹ ⊹˙⋆ ⛧ ⋆˙⊹ ⊹˙⋆ ⛧ ⋆˙⊹ ⊹˙⋆ ⛧ ⋆˙⊹

    When Adolin takes the fall for something he didn’t do, Dalinar sends him to serve anonymously in Amaram’s army.

    There he meets Kaladin, his squadleader and new roommate. Adolin’s flirty, sunshine charm slowly breaks through Kaladin’s walls, and they eventually fall for each other.

    Then, Amaram betrays them. He tries to kill Adolin and sells Kaladin into sexual slavery.

    When Adolin finally finds Kaladin again, he’s broken. He doesn’t believe the man he once loved could be a prince.

    But Adolin refuses to give up.

    Summary

    ***WIND AND TRUTH SPOILERS***

     

    I'm not messing around. I will be referencing several things that happened in WaT in the summary so click away now if you don't want spoilers.

     

    Still here? Dope.

     

    It's been a decade since the Contest of Champions and Retribution is mobilizing. Reports of returning Fused and Heralds have reached Urithiru. The end is upon them and Bridge Four reunites (I'm waving my hands about how everyone gets there—I want them all together so pipe down) but one person who should be there is missing his own party. Bridge Four is certain Kaladin Stormblessed will return but Adolin isn't so sure...until he hears a familiar voice call his name later that night on the sparring grounds.

    Summary

    Moash had won. He’d broken it. He’d broken the only thing Kaladin had ever let himself want.

    And then the final words, the ones Kaladin had feared above all, came like a death sentence: “I’m glad you’re here, Kal,” Moash said quietly. “You’ll get to see it—what I should’ve done from the start. And maybe you’ll even help me, just like you promised you would.”

    Kaladin’s world broke.

    No. Stormfather, no. Not Adolin. Please.

    ⊹˙⋆ ⛧ ⋆˙⊹ ⊹˙⋆ ⛧ ⋆˙⊹ ⊹˙⋆ ⛧ ⋆˙⊹ ⊹˙⋆ ⛧ ⋆˙⊹

    For years, Kaladin and Adolin have shared dreams of each other—dreams Kaladin forces himself to forget—without knowing the other’s identity.

    But before they can even meet, Moash convinces Kaladin to help him assassinate the King and his family, setting events in motion that could ruin everything before it even began.

    Summary

    “Kaladin,” Adolin repeated. “You want me to take Kaladin as my date.”

    “Correct,” Dalinar said.

    “Kaladin,” he said again. “You mean Bridge Four Kaladin. Captain Kaladin. My… friend Kaladin.”

    “You like him, Adolin,” Navani said gently. “And we just thought… well, maybe this was a way to help you take the first step. To stop pretending it’s only friendship when it clearly isn’t.”

    Adolin choked. “What—?” His voice cracked. “You think I—? That I like Kaladin? As in… like‑like?”

    Dalinar frowned. “Don’t you?”

    “No!” Adolin half‑shouted. “No, of course not. He’s my friend. My best friend.”

    Wasn’t he?

    ⊹˙⋆ ⛧ ⋆˙⊹ ⊹˙⋆ ⛧ ⋆˙⊹ ⊹˙⋆ ⛧ ⋆˙⊹ ⊹˙⋆ ⛧ ⋆˙⊹

    Dalinar has always respected Kaladin. So when he notices the way Adolin looks at him, Dalinar has the perfect idea: ask Kaladin to be Adolin’s date to his and Navani’s wedding.

    Adolin and Kaladin agree, if only to make Dalinar happy. They’re not dating. They don’t even like each other that way.

    Except… maybe they do.

    Pretending feels too easy. Too natural. And after the wedding, they’re left with feelings they can’t explain and definitely can’t ignore.

    Summary

    When Jasnah comes to Kaladin with a proposition (no not that kind, get your mind out of the gutter), he must choose whether or not to sacrifice his own wellbeing for the sake of doing what's right.

    Seeing as it's Kaladin, the choice is clear.

    Meanwhile, Jasnah struggles against centuries of tradition to bring about the social change Alethkar needs if it's going to survive the coming storm.
