    Summary

    Something goes wrong. The crown is split during Narinder's defeat, splitting the power between him and the Lamb.

    Narinder keeps a portion of his godhood, and the Lamb finds that abilities they had access to before are no longer possible: Healing is cut short. Powers are halved. And there is a very real chance of perma-death, as the ability to resurrect is not possible without full power, and the God of Death is not cooperative.
    Afterlife and Purgatory are not options either. Dying means erasure. Gone.

    Lambert knows Narinder grows stronger by the day, crown or not, and yet keeps him spared as they try to figure out how to complete their own goals. Narinder vows vengeance on the lamb for usurping him. After a few unsuccessful murder attempts, he's in for the long haul. It is only a matter of time before the Lamb's guard is down before he can strike, and The One Who Waits is very patient. When a mystic being demands they save the bishops from purgatory, an alliance is in order.

    Except...the lamb's actions and their presence begin to unlock abilities within the God of Death he didn't know he had prior to his imprisonment, among other fickle things, like emotions. The prophecy didn't warn him of that part.

    Summary

    “But you should know your chances going in. Given the statistics from our previous encounters with this beast, a ‘good day’ still means that one in four of the people in this room will probably be dead before this day is done.”

    15th May 2011 turned out to be a very bad day indeed. And now Taylor and Lisa are just two of the refugees fleeing the flooded ruins.

    Summary

    Now the master of the Troupe, the new Grimm returns to Hallownest on a mission.
    ~
    “Do not disturb the darkness,” the White Lady warned, “that was the mistake my wyrm made. At last, that great, dark sea is at rest, and I do not wish to change that. I could never stand to look at it. Even in the days before the fall, I refused to accompany my love to that place, for I did not trust myself. The void sea calls to us all. Do not think beings like you and I above its pull, little nightmare.”
