Summary
Some people can say Mydeimos, last prince of Castrum Kremnos, has a betting problem.
Mydei, however—in the most politest of terms—is in it to win it.
In not so polite terms, he calls everyone else critical of his betting skills losers. He admits that it’s a bit toxic of him, but that’s to show that he doesn’t take bets lightly at all, and more that he honors each bout with utmost dignity and sheer competitiveness.
So the moment Mydei sees the emblem stamped on the flags of the city-state, he turns to Hyacine and says, "I bet you three balance coins that that's our monster."
Hyacine sputters, even as Little Ica eyeballs the emblem and agrees with a solemn, "Doo doot."
There's a unicorn. And a fertility festival. Mydei's a virgin and that shouldn't matter until it does.

Summary
At some point all Phainon was able to think about was Mydei's mouth, wet with blood, imagining the drag of it down Phainon's jugular, the heat of it against Phainon's lips—a sure sign of abundant blunt force trauma to the brain. Mydei spat in his eye, Phainon elbowed Mydei's windpipe, and so on and so forth. Then Phainon opened his mouth and said: "I bet you won't win against me this round," which Mydei replied: "With what?" and Phainon joked: "My dignity." Mydei's laugh was rough, feral. He said: "Deal."
In which Phainon learns how to bite.

Your memory engraved in my soul by Lilliae

Summary
The whole world was nothing but darkness and pain but, somehow, he knew of these things from beyond it.
…
“Mydeimos,” the thin one said again.
Mydeimos. That high, firm voice.
Mydei. That low, soft voice.
These five knew something. Knew him or those voices.
So he gave them those two words burrowed somewhere deeper than his mind or body. Aedes Elysiae.
When Mydei finally emerges from the Sea of Souls after nine harsh winters, the most precious thing in the world to him isn’t his name, his body or his life. But two words he can’t remember the origin of: Aedes Elysiae.
As the years pass in exile, he finds himself plagued by knowledge that comes from the same maybe-past or maybe-future that wasn’t quite Mydei’s and yet was.
It took four years for him to stumble across Aedes Elysiae, a boy that calls the place home, and why those words were engraved upon his soul.

Summary
If it had been under any other circumstances, Phainon would have courted him. He would have picked flowers for him, recited poetry for him, followed him around the marketplace for hours until he could find a piece of amber that was the exact shade of gold as his eyes. He would have commissioned the finest craftsman in Okhema for courting gifts: jewellery to adorn his ears and neck, or maybe a dagger befitting of his status as a warrior.
phainon and mydei have dutiful sex in a loveless marriage.
