    Summary

    Why couldn’t he be fine? His mother had sent him a letter, he should be happy that she even still thought about him.

    But this was exactly why he hated receiving anything from her. It had been a while since he'd sent back a letter telling her how he was doing. He felt so guilty. He had been ignoring her for a year now, yet, every three months without missing, she sent him a letter.

    He had foolishly hoped that after a while she would stop writing to him, angry about the fact that her son was ignoring her, but no.

    He didn’t even read them. He didn’t have the courage.

    Or: Kaveh keeps getting letters from his mother and he never answers them, Alhaitham is there to help.

    Summary

    Castorice, the Maiden of Death, has lived centuries without touch, convinced she can only exist as a ghost in the world. Phainon, the Deliverer, shines so brightly that everyone mistakes his performance for perfection—while inside he feels like a fraud. Hyacine, heir of a heroic bloodline, hides her own insecurities behind relentless kindness and healing. And Anaxagoras, the infamous professor who refuses to bow to the Titans, carries grief no one is meant to bear.

    At the Grove of Epiphany—a place of night, questions, and rebellion—these four lives intertwine. Through laughter, study, arguments, and small kindnesses, they begin to see one another not as myths, but as people. This is a story about what it means to be real: to be flawed, fragile, and still worthy of love.

    Summary

    There's really nothing that could bother Gwen, honestly. As long as her beloved sisters are happy, she's completely fine with everything—the engagement, the shattered reflection of hers, the absolute dread she feels looking at herself in the morning. Really, getting married to a prince whose cold at best and wishes nothing more than to stay far, far away from her, treating her very existence like a great pain in his side — it's okay. It's okay, honestly. She can deal with that.

    Then Abbi comes into her life and Gwen thinks, perhaps, it doesn't have to be like this.

    OR: Gwen's future husband is a dick, Gwen is going through a lot, and Abbi gives great hugs.

    Summary

    Perhaps Phainon should just compromise—pretend he never questioned Anaxa about any of this. Instead, he brazenly offers, “Let me satisfy your curiosity.”

    “Oh?” A tilt of his head.

    “Fly with me.”

    Every Chrysos Heir is born with wings, majestic and a sight to behold. Despite that, Anaxa never gets to fly.

    Summary

    “So, like,” Stelle says as they start hiking to the next checkpoint. He’s getting a bad feeling about this. “Are you Bailu’s dad?”

    Dan Heng pulls himself out of the snow drift he fell into, coughing and sputtering. Dusting snow off of his coat, he glares at the hysterically laughing Stelle. “Of course not! Stop being ridiculous.”

    “Are you sure? Or is this another ‘Dan Feng is her dad and I’m not him’ situation?” Stelle pulls herself together, but just barely. “You were talking about all that stuff about the old Imbibitor Lunae and his sin and breaking the cycle of reincarnation and stuff so I kind of figured…”

    “You figured wrong.” Dan Heng snaps. “Besides, Vidyadhara reincarnate. We can’t bear children.”

    “Believe me, I’ve heard plenty about your infertility,” Stelle rolls her eyes. What does she mean by that? “But you’re still Bailu’s dad, I think.”

    Bailu stows away on the Astral Express. They take the long way back to the Luofu.
