Summary
When Laurence woke for the first time in Japan, having lost some years of his life in memory, he was confused, more than anything else, by the stark white handprint that stood out against the skin of his forearm.
He did not have a soulmark. But apparently, at some point during his many missing years, he had gained one.

Summary
St. Germain crouched next to her, her hearty voice soft in Catherine's ear. “It will make its way out slowly at first, and then all at once. No need to rush it, although it bally well rushed us enough. Do you know the words? Good. Good. You are more ready than you think you are.”
Dragons hatch when they want, and sometimes that is five years too early and into the arms of a terrified teenager.

Summary
"Gottlieb!" Pentecost says over the phone. "How's it going?"
"V-Very well. Thank you." An idea occurs to Hermann. Something to say that might secretly alert them to the danger. “Newton and I have been getting along very well.”
“That’s good. That’s good,” Jake says. He doesn’t seem to realize anything is amiss.
Hermann frowns. “No, I said Newton and I are really working well together.”
“Oh!” says Jake. “I get it now. Congratulations, Gottlieb! Certainly took you and Geiszler long enough!”
The connection flickers and cuts off.
“What the hell was that?” Amara hisses.
Hermann is still a little stunned. “I was— I was trying to say something out of character to tip them off.”
“How would that be out of character?”
Hermann spins, outraged. “How would it not be?”

Summary
Newt is sitting on the tabletop, surrounded by the teen rangers. Both his sleeves and pant legs are rolled up as high as they can go. "And this one is obviously Onibaba. I've got Otachi on the back of my upper thigh here, but that one's for my fiancé's eyes only."
Amara squints at Trespasser. "Which one hurt the worst?"
"Hmm," Newt thinks aloud, "Underarms really sucked. So did the back of my knees and my spine. Actually, the spine sucked more because I was in the chair for eight hours and I couldn't sleep comfortably for like, a month."
"So why... why the kaiju?" asks Suresh, and they all go quiet.

Summary
Three and a half years have passed since Empress Chenelo's death. Not even the imperial family gives much thought to her son, who is in the care of Setheris Nelar, in the distant Western Marshes and far from the court.
But vexing news come from Edonomee: Nelar is dead and Maia is without a guardian.
The emperor will have to decide on a new arrangement. For the sake of expediency, Nemolis volunteers to go to Edonomee and bring his half-brother to the Untheileneise Court. After all, the sooner a new guardian is found, the better.
