    Summary

    Burned-out forensics student Olivia Thatcher finds herself inexplicably torn from her world and thrust into the gaslit streets of Victorian London — right into the path of the Queen's Watchdog and his devilish butler. With nothing but her wits, modern knowledge, and a slowly fraying sense of reality, she joins the morally questionable duo in solving the unsolvable.

    As she becomes entangled in their world of secrets and sin, her sharp mind and unexpected compassion begin to leave a mark — not just on the living, but the damned as well. But as cases grow darker and bonds deepen, she must face a terrifying question: what if going home means losing the only souls who genuinely see her?

    Will she survive? Is the real question.

    Summary

    “It's a curse to be in love with such pretty things,” you said with a familiar ache. “There’s a good reason why a flower wilts right after you pluck it. I’d think this dress would wither just as well on me.”

    “You’ve never imagined?”

    “Imagining is all I do, and for that reason, I’m perfectly content.”

    “I don’t think anyone could be content,” he started, minding his fingers against the lace sleeves, “imagining something they want, but convinced themselves they don’t deserve it."

    Summary

    Is there a reality where humans and dragons can coexist peacefully, given the messy heart of humanity? Yes. But for that dream to survive, you cannot stay isolated. Empathy is not enough without a bridge to the rest of the world. You need the missing puzzle piece. You need a Marius.

    Despite being an island famed for its dragon killers, isn't it strange how no empire, no country has launched a crusade to kill dragons themselves? To take over the job and be done with it?

    For centuries, Berk has enjoyed guaranteed sovereignty. The cost to being free from these crusaders? Kill the dragons and keep them away from flying south to the Mainland. Be the shield that keeps dragons from flying south, so that the great Empires look away.

    Berk's closest ally in this delicate peace has always been the Marius family. Their official business is trade. Their real job? Presenting Berk's 'proof of work' to the southern Empires, maintaining the balance of power through information and coin.

    But the entire world is thrown off its axis when Hiccup befriends a Night Fury.

    -

    A retelling of HTTYD that rebuilds the world from the ground up to explore what it would truly take for dragons to remain.
