    Summary

    “I’m sorry,” he says, though he doesn’t feel very sorry. “I think we started this conversation poorly. I don’t get much free time, and I usually spend it under this tree.”

    “I fail to see how this is my problem.”

    Kaveh grits his teeth.

    “I would really appreciate it if you would find a different tree to read under.”

    The stranger looks up. There’s a sharpness in his gaze that almost makes Kaveh want to fidget. This man is clearly mortal. Kaveh can sense the soul in him, surprisingly soft when contrasted with the razor’s blade of his eyes.

    “What’s your name?” the stranger asks. Kaveh, surprised by the question, responds without thinking.

    “Kaveh.”

    “Well, Kaveh,” he says, “I suggest you find a new tree.”

    Kaveh, an immortal god, meets Alhaitham, a perfectly average scholar, and takes it personally.

    Written for Vasileia: A Haikaveh AU Fantasy Zine.

    Summary

    In the relentless whirl of deadlines and life turmoil, Kaveh finds himself sleepless and on the brink of crashing out. The project he’d been working on for hours is completely derailed from what the professor asked them to do, but that’s just one of the many things that he has to worry about. To sate his crisis, Kaveh turns to alcohol for comfort. One drink too many later, and Kaveh finds himself in the apartment of a hot stranger.

     

    Or where Kaveh gets absolutely drunk and wakes up in Ahaitham’s bed.

    Summary

    They don’t know. What he needed to do to reach this far, what he sacrificed for Deliverance.

     

    It cost him everything.

     

    What he finds on the ground is a lone White lily stained with golden blood, the same flower that Mydei shed from his eyes when he lost his companions.

     

    This must be the retribution of Deliverance.

     
    Phainon deserves to die.

     

    amphoreus is realized and only Phainon's head is still stuck in the flame chase, he develops hanahaki because even amidst his demise, he still desires a certain sun

    Summary

    Eternal Recurrence #3,400,236 concluded as all that came before, and as all would come after. And yet, there remains a shimmering memory of it, something that stands out in that broken brain of his.

    “You're crying.”

    Khaslana lifts his tired gaze from their hands, blinks against the salty vapors rising from where his waterline glimmers.

    “I am.”

    Mydei is cupping his face, holding him gently by the jaw, and Khaslana barely feels it.

    “You're breaking.”

    “Yeah.” It's hollow, his voice. Numb. “I know.”

    ____

    Khaslana's long, long journey toward true daybreak, and all those shimmering, bloodstained memories collected along the way.

    Summary

    “May I know my host’s name?”

    “Audata of Aedes Elysiae. I live with my husband, Hieronymus, and my son, Phainon.” 

    Aedes Elysiae. Gorgo had never heard of such a place. It must have been beyond the bounds or ambitions of Kremnos. 

    She tried for a smile and playful bounce of the bundle in her arms. “I am known as Gorgo. This is my son, Mydeimos.” 

    She was no longer ‘of Castrum Kremnos’. Certainly not its queen nor an esteemed warrior and not even the lowest of trainees. She was of nowhere. Nothing but a wanderer in exile.

    When Eurypon allows Gorgo to decide the means of her demise, she chooses to accompany her newborn son into the River of Souls.

    Rather than a sea of flowers or eternal battlefield, they wash ashore in Aedes Elysiae.
