    Summary

    The resurrection of the dead of Canaan House, as carried out by newly minted and unwilling Lyctor Harrowhark Nonagesimus.

    (The Second learn there are some things you can't - and shouldn't - shut out and soldier your way through. The Fourth gain a handful of new role models, for better or for worse. The Fifth learn that perspective is a sword with two edges, and the clarity of understanding can bring with it a great deal of pain, but also a map through which to chart the way forward. The Sixth find the strength to hold everything together except for themselves. The Eighth tumble into the free-fall that comes after a crisis of faith slashes every string holding the world together and hit the ground hard. And the Ninth?

    Well. The Ninth House never did care much for the rules of what is, isn't, or should be 'possible.')

    Summary

    Pyrrha Dve hadn’t been expecting the kid. The teenager who looked like her ex, was named after her dead best friend, and could plausibly be unlucky enough to share her genetic material. But maybe she should've been looking after her all along. At least, someone should have.

    Gideon Nav could tolerate some weird questions for free food. But it was pretty rude of this Pyrrha lady to come and stir up shit about her mom. If she ever saw her again it would be too soon.

    A Synchronized Cardioversion prequel in which teenage Gideon and disaster grownup Pyrrha go from strangers to family.
