    Summary

    “You shouldn’t be alone in the dark. It’s dangerous,” Sandrone warns.

    “It is?” Columbina frowns. Her voice is as lovely as her singing: light and airy, with a lilt of an accent Sandrone can’t figure out.

    “I’m serious, you could get kidnapped.”

    Columbina’s lips morph into a sly smile. “Aren’t you walking around campus by yourself?”

    You—!” Sandrone shouts as she grits her teeth, clenching her fists in anger. “It’s different! I’m actually aware of my surroundings while you’re sitting out in the hallway singing songs with your eyes closed!”

    Sandrone has trouble sleeping and decides to go out for a walk across campus to clear her head when she encounters an oblivious girl singing her heart out without any care for her safety. Fearing that something might happen to her if she’s left alone, Sandrone decides to accompany her to make sure nothing happens.

    As it turns out, Sandrone is the one who needs to be watched over because she finds herself waking up in somebody else’s bed the next morning.

    Summary

    Phainon remains wide awake, restless with a kind of nervous energy he can neither deplete or dispel. Anticipation has him sitting on the edge of his bed, naked except for a sheet across his middle, his fingers curling around the edge of the mattress as he waits.

    He doesn’t wait long.

    Mydei enters in silence, bare armed and draped only in a loose chiton.

    Phainon and Mydei say their first goodbyes in silence.

    Summary

    If you were to ask the merfolk of Kremnos who is the strongest mer in the reef, you’d get one unified answer.

    “Definitely His Highness.”

    And yet, when a brave soul—a merling of only twelve migrations—asks the strongest mer the same question, the ocean itself seems to pause out of bewilderment.

    “It’s Phainon,” Mydei answers without a lick of hesitation.

    Phainon, a forager of no particular lineage. Not one heart still swimming has ever seen that mer hold a weapon sharper than blunted shell sickles to harvest kelp with.

    Or, Phainon is gentle until he isn't.

    Summary

    The rustle of fabric, the sound of a sigh. Something warm is draped around Phainon’s shoulders. A blood-red, shiny coat. The inside is terribly soft, and that smell—Mydei’s smell—clings to it too. “At least wear a jacket if you’re going to be stubborn,” he says, and he’s still standing there when Phainon turns his head to look. He’s left in a tight black t-shirt, arms bare and folded against the chill, ruffled but pretending not to be.

    Phainon’s chest hurts. “What about you?” he asks.

    “I’m fine,” Mydei says.

    “You’re shivering.”

    Phainon loses his parents, gains a cat and a boyfriend, and not much changes at all.

    Summary

    After averting the tragedy of the world, Phainon leaves Okhema. He's the Deliverer, the hero of the world, everyone's savior.
    Well, he was.

    …He's done with that, now. The world is saved. There's no more reason for him to stay. No fate left to deliver. Nothing left they need him for.

    So, Phainon packs.

    He debates leaving a note about his departure, but, ultimately, decides against it.
    No one will miss him. Who could miss a man who was only a mask?

    He's fulfilled his purpose here, and now it's time for him to leave.
    Phainon is tired. He's spent a lifetime living a lie, playing the role of fate, and now that the mask has fallen away,

    there's nothing left to save.

    So, Phainon leaves before Entry Hour and he does not look back.
