Summary
She doesn’t know what she was expecting when the Champion of the Hells showed up in her dreams, but it’s certainly not this. No brimstone, no gloating, no welcome to the dark side monologue. It’s—a little disappointing, if she’s being honest.
While the Crown Keepers are on their quest to bring Ted back to the material plane, Opal meets another Champion of the Betrayers. They're nothing alike.

Summary
“I would like you to know me,” Caleb says.
It feels like a secret. Like the darkest part of him cracked open; all his months and years of hiding, of wrapping his arms and scratching the bindings, of not loving, not loving anything but an unkillable cat — it’s unraveling around him. He feels naked. He feels the way he did the first time Pumat Sol spelled him clean.
“I find that — I would like you to know me,” he says, again.

Summary
By the time Orym hops into bed and settles himself under the blankets, he can hardly keep his eyes open.
And yet, he lies there for several minutes and doesn’t fall asleep. He can’t tell why—he’s not worrying over anything, and his mind is actually quite blank. His limbs feel too heavy, and he’s warmed by the hot meal—he’s exceptionally cozy, and yet—nothing.
Genuinely confused, he’s about to start counting backwards from 500 when Dorian’s voice comes through the dark once again. “Orym?”
Orym blinks at the ceiling. Huh. He must’ve been waiting for that.
“Would you like to join me over here?” Orym asks the ceiling.
Small, “Yes, please.”
Orym starts shifting over to make room.

Summary
"War's an ugly thing," you tell her once; the stars are thick in the sky, smell of summer heat fading yet, the torchlight and victory feast ongoing.
"How odd," she says. Her finger traces the back of your hand, light as the secret in her smile, hotter than any brand. "You never make it seem that way."
“I assure you, it is only the company,” you say. “You have a gift.”

Summary
“I have never witnessed a prayer to Death before,” Ares says. “I wished to observe.”
“Merely observe?” Aphrodite asks, her smile sly.
“For now.”
“I rather think he’ll be here sooner if you let your heart sing, dearest,” she hums, ever knowing. “You love very loudly.”
“Dite,” he says, warningly.
“Merely a suggestion, darling.”
