    Summary

    Kim Dokja’s phone buzzed — a message from an unknown account: About the Rachmaninoff review. He almost ignored it. He rarely entertained private messages.

    But something made him open it.

    I read your review of the Rachmaninoff concert three times. I’ve read everything you’ve written about my playing over the years, the criticism, the praise, the observations that made me hear my own performances differently. You wrote once that my Beethoven sounded like a monument to human achievement and a testament to nothing. I kept that sentence on my desk for months. It made me practice differently. It made me listen to myself differently.

    I don’t know who you are. I don’t need to know. But I wanted to tell you that your presence at the concert — knowing you were listening, knowing you would write with your honest cruelty changed how I played. The trill in the adagio. I held it because I knew you would hear whether I let go or not.

    Thank you for listening. Thank you for being honest. Thank you for hoping, even when I gave you no reason to.

    — Y.

    Summary

    To the person who has been breaking into my apartment:

    Thank you for the food. The cleaning is excessive but appreciated. The sex is—

    Actually, I'm not writing that down.

    I found your binder. We need to talk.

    — Kim Dokja

    Summary

    After failing to grasp the Star from the 46th scenario, Yoo Joonghyuk finds a different way to tie Kim Dokja to his side: a sub-scenario with a failure penalty of temporarily binding the participating incarnations' hands together. The penalty will only last a few days, but even this much is satisfying, especially after the years that Kim Dokja was gone.

    Kim Dokja is just sick of everyone trying to babysit him, even if it's a bastard with a pretty face like Yoo Joonghyuk.

    --
    “I gave you a chance, Kim Dokja,” Yoo Joonghyuk says lowly. “If you won’t take your own life seriously, then I’ll do it for you.”

    Summary

    Yoo Joonghyuk peered into the obsidian water, reflecting everything yet revealing nothing. He was reminded of Kim Dokja's eyes.

    "Once I am crowned," he said. "I'll destroy the Council with my own hands. I'll free the people in my kingdom. And I'll stop this foolish war with the seafolk."

    The seas teem with violent monsters—the Kraken in the heart of it all.

    Yoo Joonghyuk is looking for such a monster.
