    Summary

    “Beauregard – you said she is outside?” Essek half-turns in the direction of the front door. “Should we invite her in?”

    It feels like there is something stuck in his throat. “In a moment. She is, ah – giving us some space.”

    Essek turns back to stare at him. Repeats quietly, dangerously, “Space.”

    Caleb forces himself to swallow. “Yes.”

    Essek’s attention is a palpable thing now, sharp like a knife’s edge against his cheek. “Explain.”

    One moment makes all the difference during the battle at Blumenthal. In the aftermath, the Nein grapple with what comes next.

    Summary

    Part of her wonders if it would be easier if she’d never been a cleric. If she’d never had any special powers that could raise the dead in the first place. Maybe she would have learned all of this sooner.

    “It just feels,” Jester says, trying to put some of that into words, “like I had a power that just stopped working.”

    Jester Lavorre spends a lifetime learning how to let go.

    In Exandria, the dead don't stop. They continue in the outer planes, in whatever afterlife they've earned. And from the outer planes, they can watch the living.

    Summary

    When Yussa invites himself along on an expedition to Aeor, he expects to unravel both the mysteries of ancient mages, as well as Caleb's mysterious arcane acquaintance.

    If he'd known this sort of mystery was best-relegated to the pages of a romance novel, he probably would have stayed home.

    In which Caleb unpacks some feelings around trust, Essek admits some fears about family, and Yussa is a third wheel.

    Summary

    Essek Thelyss is in Astrid’s office.

    She enters brusquely, holding up a hand like it will keep him at bay, and says, “I am not doing this with you right now.”

    He’s sitting in her desk chair, folding his hands smugly up at her, eyes wide and serene as a doe’s. He says, “Hello, Archmage,” and Astrid says, “Get out.”
