Summary
When you open your eyes, hovering between the sea of asleep and awake, you can see the divinity of all that moves, the depths of the universe.
Yet your eyes return, time and again, to the archivist, who wishes to devour the secrets of the stars.
Little wonder, then, that Dan Heng enthralls you so.
Like calls to like, in this celestial void.
The Final Part of In Infinite Stars Pt. One will be posted 4/26/2024.

Summary
Even at the alter, General Ren does not smile. His expressionless gaze is cast on their joined hands instead as if it offends him. He does not lift his gaze until they rise from a deep bow, deeper than Dan Heng has ever had to in his life and it is for a man who has slain thousands of his people.
His smile slips when their eyes meet, a clash of green and red so vivid the world comes to a standstill to this single point in time.
After six years on the battlefield, Dan Heng meets defeat in the face of his consort.
~
In the aftermath of a bloody war, the way to a lasting peace treaty comes in the form of marriage; generals of their respective armies would be offered as consorts for the heirs of their nations. In the name of peace, Dan Heng reluctantly accepts the show of goodwill but seeing an enemy as a friend is no easy task.
It quickly becomes clear that his own people would sooner seek vengeance for their losses than to accept this political power play, even at the cost of their prince's life.

Summary
Xie Lian found something in himself that he thought was gone—worn away with every mistake he had made.
Faith.
His arms opened, and the child was hesitant—but eventually, he fell into them, his body trembling with silent sobs.
"I remember you," he whispered again, voice breaking as Hong-er clung to him.
I remember you.
I remember you.
I will always, for as long as I live, remember you.
(A re-telling of TGCF where Xie Lian has his cursed shackle placed in his eyes, blinding him. And yet, through all of his struggles; there is always someone watching over him.)
