    Summary

    Why was he even here? He wasnt academically gifted in any sense of the word, and yet, Mollymauk Tealeaf had his application accepted. To be the assistant to the top Professor of the Academy no less. He just hoped that he could fulfil the duties that would be required of him. If in doubt, Mollymauk knew that he had the gift of the gab, and could just pretend to know more than he actually did. It worked usually, especially around stuffy old academics that would visit him late at night.

    So why was he so nervous to mess up?

    Summary

    When a sealed box appears in Essek of den Thelyss’ office, containing a script. the acclaimed director and producer of Moonlight Productions finds a new story to tell.

    In search of authenticity, he turns to Dr. Caleb Widogast, a newly appointed professor of modern history whose research focuses on systems of power and the quiet machinery of abuse. Their collaboration begins as an intellectual exercise, two men dissecting truth from illusion, but soon becomes an unraveling.

    Between drafts and late night conversations, Essek begins to see what his films have always avoided: himself.
    And Caleb, patient but scarred in his own way, must decide how close one can stand to another’s truth without becoming part of the fiction.

    A slow burning story of connection, guilt, and the fragile beauty of trust and the fragile alchemy of healing.

    This is an adult story. Please take the tags seriously. The most intense chapters have a summary at the beginning. Please skip them if you are unsure. Your well-being is more important than the story.

    Summary

    Caleb Widogast returns a stolen Luxon Beacon to the Kryn Dynasty knowing it will cost him safety—and possibly his freedom.

    What he does not expect is to be seen.

    As judgment unfolds in the Bright Queen’s court and Trent Ikithon refuses to release his claim, Caleb finds himself under the watch of Essek Thelyss, the Dynasty’s Shadow Hand. What begins as supervision becomes conversation, then trust, then something quieter and far more dangerous: understanding.
