    Summary

    Whenever soulmarks were the topic of conversation, Artemy was laughed at. He understood why – most people had something totally benign like 'how can I help you today' or 'can you tell me how to get to the library', which were totally normal things to be the first thing you said to a stranger.

    The first words Artemy’s soulmate was destined to say to him, on the other hand, left a lot to be desired.

    “Maybe they’re a serial killer?” Lara suggested.

    Summary

    As the ground beneath his boot soles shivered, the Haruspex at last knew what the odonghs meant when they said they could sense the weight of every pair of feet on the streets of the town.

    Because he felt footsteps that should not be there, crossing the Bridge Square.

    Walking west, to where the sun set, the steps spoke their own rhythmic language, tolling like a warning bell: I am going to see this to the end.

    Summary

    The people of the Town-On-Gorkhon whisper that you get strange dreams when you sleep under the violet light of the Polyhedron. But in Daniil Dankovsky's learned opinion? This is frankly ridiculous.

    Summary

    Curse him, curse Andrey Stamatin, this discursive buffoon, for unknowingly planting such a titillating experiment in his mind. He couldn’t have known Daniil would be interested by the notion, but he resented it nonetheless. It was futile. Ultimately it was his restlessness in tandem with his medical curiosity that compelled him to seduce Eva.

    Summary

    The scab almost hidden under Clara’s cap itched and oozed, sticking to the wool and tugging whenever she turned her head. She would need another bandage for it – the last one had been lying crumpled on her pillow when she’d woken up, scabbed to it by the bloody mess she’d made in her sleep. But thinking about that, barter or scraping together enough coins to haunt the nearest pharmacy, had made her throat close and her eyes sting with stubbornly unshed tears.

    Couldn’t it all just stop? Not just the bleeding, which seemed to go on forever from such a clean-edged cut. Not just the itching and stinging, but the prickle of new hair growing under her cap, the need for clean bandages and pillowcases, the ache she couldn’t seem to wrap tightly enough in her arms. The life that was growing and going on around her, even in her body, dragging her along while she was still trying to find her footing in it.

    Summary

    When all the kicked up sand finally settles, the town's new authority revolves around an ascendant Changeling-- leaving room in the script only for an acquiescent Haruspex and an obsolescent Bachelor. From the breaking of frameworks emerges an incompatible yet inextricable pair; a malunion; a chimera. A common enough yield around these parts.

    Pestilence cures loneliness, but if there is a shortage of sickness at hand, then love and sadomasochism can be makeshift workalikes.

    Summary

    He couldn’t know her. He had kept his distance from the brides in the years before he’d left, distant silhouettes in the steppe, less real than the sun they danced against. The disappointment pursed in her lips had to be a mistake, meant for someone else.

    “Have you forgotten me, then?” she asked. “It was a cruel thing he did, cutting you off from us, but even a menkhu’s blade can’t touch memory. You would have had to make that cut yourself. But that means you can mend it, too. Try to remember me, sister. Come back to us – nothing else is stopping you now.”

    -

    Artemy has spent her entire life trying to bury what she really is. But when she meets a man who invented himself against all odds and reunites with the bride who first showed her the joy of dancing, she can no longer deny the truth - only choose how to live with it.

    Summary

    "Don't feign innocence, moga."

    "I never said I was innocent, Christ, you're dense," Daniil breathed. His trousers were too tight; it was all too many layers of fabric, dulling the contact that should've been overwhelming until it was only teasing, just enough stimulation to drive him insane. "I'm not feigning anything, and I'm not wrong. You're the one who broke my nose and then mounted me like a feral animal, wouldn't you say that's depraved? Hell, you're lucky I'm even allowing this, knowing your bloody track record."

    Artemy snickered into Daniil's ear. "It's not broken, don't be dramatic. Your pretty face will be just fine."

    For sworn enemies dead set on killing each other, Daniil and Artemy survive an awful lot of one-on-one encounters.

    Summary

    “...What’s your name then, eastern transplant?” the young man asked when Artemy could taste smoke.

    “Artemy,” he answered, earning raised eyebrows for his honesty. The young man seemed surprised by the response to his own question. Instead of pulling out his own cigarette, he reclaimed the one Artemy had chosen to take a drag himself. There were plenty in his pack before, though, weren’t there?

    “Artemy… My, my… That’s your real name, isn’t it?”

    “…Should it not be?” he asked.

    The other young man was still smiling at him though and offering him back the cigarette still to share.

    “No. I rather think it should be,” he answered. “Audentes fortuna iuvat… Just for that, you can call me Daniil.”

    Summary

    Won’t somebody help me chase the shadows away…

    As much as Artemy wants to spend the night with his colleague, after the man makes an offer that they might take pleasure from each other if they're so inclined, when a butcher lays at last with his lover what will he see? A body to be caressed, or harvested? Haunted by visions of his place being to cut along the Lines, haunted by guilt over past choices, the Haruspex fears he won't be much of a close, intimate friend to Daniil Dankovsky after all...
