    Summary

    Every child of Sumeru, from Gandharva Ville to Port Ormos, knows that the Dragon nests in the high branches of the Great Tree. The children chant among their skipping games of Rukkadevata, who tamed the great beast before it brought its grief and calamity to wither all the great jungle, of Little Lord Kusanali, daughter of the great goddess, to whom the beast only listens. Their parents gossip about the vast trove of knowledge, hidden in the boughs of the tree, far beyond the reach of any mortal scholar, where only the bravest and wisest may tread and come out alive.

    Some old stories tell of scholars sent up in sacrifice to appease the Dragon’s anger, for when he is moved to fury, only the Dendro Archon can calm him, and when he is moved to sorrow, all the rivers flood and the jungle dies for his loneliness.

    Summary

    The box seats of the theater are obscured from the ground below by all but the most watchful eyes, a fact Kaveh has never been more grateful for than he is right now. If they had been at the level ground of Zubyar Theater, there'd have been no hiding where Al-Haithams' hands have wandered. Then again, Kaveh supposes Al-Haitham wouldn't have gotten quite so bold, if they were in the Grand Bazaar. Not out of any sort of shame, but out of respect for Nilou, who the enigmatic Scribe holds in high regard and respect.

    Summary

    Or, How to Socialize a Feral Architect and Not Fall in Love

    --

    Al-Haitham has long held the belief that one should make all of life's decisions with clarity and conviction, because regret is one of the most pointless wastes of time he's ever had the misfortune to encounter. He holds himself to this standard and expects very few people to meet it—after all, he's long been aware his point of view is unique, and that most people lack the confidence in their own goals to have that sort of clarity in the first place.

    Summary

    The music from the grand ballroom can still be heard even out at the garden fountains, despite having gone far enough away that the roar of the grand fete's noise has faded to nothing but a distant mumble. Here, the murmur of the fountain replaces the idle chatter of all of Sumeru's elite, and the humming voices of the Aranara that were scattered curiously through Nahida's gardens followed the melody of the orchestra inside.

    The Archduke had been told explicitly to not leave the Palace grounds, and then more explicitly to remain within view of the ballroom, and he had obeyed these orders to the letter of them—no one could have reasonably expected any truer obedience from Al-Haitham of all people.

    Summary

    The first thing anyone notices about Al-Haitham is that he is beautiful. The second thing they notice is he doesn't suffer the presence of fools.

    The third thing anyone learns about Al-Haitham is that he is hopelessly in love with Kaveh.

    Summary

    There had never been a time Vasily had not known for themselves what they were, only the time before they had the words to describe it, and the time before they knew that not every person’s flesh was a puzzle left behind by Selene, interlocking parts and nestled valleys into which a soul almost, but did not quite entirely fit.

    “Believe in a love that is being stored up for you like an inheritance, and have faith that in this love there is a strength and a blessing so large that you can travel as far as you wish without having to step outside it.”

    Summary

    Scent hangs heavy through the house like a coat of dust from the second Alhaitham walks in the door, so he knows without looking that Kaveh’s meeting with his client today has not gone well. It is irritating to him–not just because the entire house now smells of rotting fruit and decaying flowers, but because he has told Kaveh to drop this client before.

    Summary

    “Behave yourself,” Al-Haitham murmurs as he settles over Kaveh’s body, trapping his hips with just the strength of his thighs.

    It’s a ludicrous demand to make of anyone, but especially so tonight–how is Kaveh meant to keep calm and collected when Alhaitham sits on him wearing nothing but a leather harness dyed a deep green? How is he meant to be sane, watching how the asymmetrical leather frames the man’s ridiculous and ample chest?
