Summary
The more Verin dug into it, the more convinced he became. Essek had spent an inordinate amount of time with the Mighty Nein when they came to Rosohna. Done all sorts of strange favors for them. Ferried them all over Wildemount. Arranged visits with prisoners in the Dungeon of Penance. Let them dig up his yard. Descended into Aeor with them, unaccompanied. Accepted invitations to dinner. Let one of them hug him. In public. More than once.
Mind control. It had to be.
Verin gets it into his head that Essek has been kidnapped by the Mighty Nein (specifically Caleb), and sets out on a solo rescue mission to Rexxentrum.
Hijinks ensue.

Summary
"Unfortunately, our progress has stalled out somewhat," Ikithon says, slowly circling the beacon on its stand. Under any other circumstances, that would be the thing that drew Essek's eye.
Instead, his gaze is fixed on the man sitting in a chair at the circle's center. A picture of misery, he is bound hand and foot to the chair with thick iron cuffs. His face is mottled with bruising, his rust colored hair hangs in limp, tangled clumps, and his clothes are torn and burnt. Wide, frightened eyes the color of daylight sky whip frantically back and forth between them.
Essek knows that face. He knows it all too well. Not two months ago, that face kissed him on the forehead and told him that he was still capable of good.
The bottom drops out of Essek's stomach. Please not him.
--------
After the peace talks at sea, Ikithon approaches Essek with an offer he can't refuse... But dearly wishes he could.

Summary
“Can you tell me why you are so certain I would prefer your younger face?”
Caleb laughed again, still disbelieving. It seemed impossible that Essek could not understand this—Caleb felt like he was being asked to explain why burnt food tasted bad, or why putting one’s hand through a meat grinder would hurt. But Essek’s bemusement seemed entirely genuine. “Because it’s not as ugly? Because who likes fucking decrepit old men?”
“Clearly you have not heard what your students say about you when they think you cannot hear,” Essek said, with such dry frankness that it startled a laugh out of Caleb.
Caleb is getting old, and has a hard time believing that Essek can still be attracted to him. Essek decides to prove him wrong with a little tender loving bondage and body worship.

Summary
Essek wakes one day to find a man he hardly recognises in his bed. One who answers to Bren and flinches from the sight of him. One who has no recollection of him or their friends.
Seperated by more than distance, Caleb wakes trapped in a cold tower. His parents are still alive and that should be a blessing but none of his friends remember him, especially the Shadowhand who may be his only hope of returning home.
e.g Caleb and Essek learn to love every version of each other and of themselves
