    Summary

    Doubtless some people must have heard her scream, but no one comes to check on her. Cassandra calls on Apollo often enough.

    What happens next depends on his mood.

    Summary

    This was a dangerous habit. Maelle was a dangerous habit. Affection toward anyone was strictly off-limits, yet one doe-eyed, primly-postured girl weaseled her way into his heart.

    What helped least of all was Maelle’s resemblance. Like a vivid hallucination, he dreamt of growing up with Alicia. Guiding her youth-soft hands through clumsy brushstrokes and detangling her hair as she sniveled and blubbered about Clea for the umpteenth time.

    Every time, he woke with more fondness and protection in his touch for Maelle, and Maelle seemed adamant to seek him out most nights in camp.

    Summary

    Character study: in which Jiang Cheng’s greatest tragedy is, perhaps, the fact that Wei Wuxian always loved him like a brother.

    Jiang Cheng had never wanted Wei Wuxian to be his brother.

    “Your father thinks that he can just bring his by-blows here, into my house, and expect me to look the other way,” muttered Yu Ziyuan, glaring out across the water to where Wei Ying was laughing in a boat with Jiang Yanli. “He thinks that I have such a thick face that I will just brazen it out, no matter what people say behind my back.”

    “Mother,” protested Jiang Cheng, unhappily. “Mother, he isn’t. You know he isn’t. They were just friends, Father and that lady. He said so, on his honour.”

    Summary

    “Hanguang-jun,” Wei Wuxian repeats. His heart clenches. He wants—but he’d really meant to have this nightmare stuff down before they met again, so he wouldn’t find himself relying on Lan Wangji’s nearness. He’s not supposed to go back yet. But he’s so tired, and his will crumbles. “Yeah,” he says. “All right. Take me back to Gusu with you.”
