Summary
Death has left a hole in Henry’s heart that gnaws and howls at him at any given moment. He hears a melodic laugh of a barmaid and thinks of his last conversation with Bianca. He sees the bellows give life to fire and thinks of his father warning him against learning to fight. Every time he walks past the refugee camp, he knows how fortunate he is, but at what cost? To live an incomplete life, not knowing if he is betraying the people he’s lost by living the life he currently has?
***
After the destruction of Skalitz, Henry feels as though his life is bifurcated in irrecoverable ways. Before, he was a good Christian who believed in God and had a sweetheart in Bianca. Afterwards, he navigates new relationships while questioning a god that allows such devastation.
A journey of acceptance, religion, and love.

Summary
For the first time in his life of indulgence, Hans has found something he can never have, Henry. In a stroke of genius, the young lord comes up with a game that allows the two of them to enjoy each other's company more freely; by pretending he is the god Apollo and Henry is the mortal Adonis. But what happens when the young lord's feelings grow too big for his body, and Henry becomes more than a friend and an infrequent lover?

Summary
"But I'm not just asking for myself," Hans continued, quieter. "If people start to wonder about the lack of an heir, it won't be me they turn on, we both know that. Jitka's reputation—she'll be worse than ruined when the gossip starts to come."
Or, when the heir to Rattay still can't sire a child one year into marriage, he comes begging for Henry's help. Henry thinks the task is simple, if insane: shoot a few loads in Jitka, then make like the wind so nobody suspects him.
Unfortunately for Hans, nothing is nearly ever so simple.

Summary
Henry Skalitz knows fire season at Yosemite National Park is not something to take lightly from his years as a ranger stationed in the park. Smoke on the horizon is the first sign that everything can change in an instant.
Hans Capon was never meant to stay. A wealthy donor who thinks the world revolves around him, he’s a temporary presence in a place built on endurance.
But as the valley heats up and the line between duty and desire thins, Henry finds himself protecting more than the land he loves. And when fire finally comes, both men must decide what remains after smoke and ash.

Summary
Thirteen years after the fall of Skalitz, Henry returns to a world changed—and to Hans Capon, who has changed even more, a shadow of the man Henry once knew. What begins as a quiet reunion becomes a slow, painful reckoning: of choices made, futures lost, and the kind of love that never truly dies.
It is a story of quiet devotion, of one man returning not to reclaim, but to remind. Together they help each other find meaning again—not through grand gestures, but through presence, memory, and the courage to mourn.Bookmarked by exploring_in_space
