Summary
»From what I see, the Bear Squad has gained a new cub!«
When Tekotteh announced the official outcome of the current initiation fight, no one at the pit would have thought it would be Nhevv—the young woman known for sneaking out of the Bulwark at night, as well as for her pranks, sharp tongue and strong-willed nature.
Even greater was the surprise when Tekotteh announced her further Guardian: Kotallo.And so Kotallo, who was always only responsible for himself, suddenly has to come to terms with the fact that he still has much to learn and that nothing happens without a reason.

Summary
Ikkotah has always accepted the possibility of losing one of them - they all lived soldiers' lives. He never expected that he'd lose all three of them in a single day.
A canon-era sequel of sorts to "At Ease, Marshal" and a kinder ending for all of our boys. Because Fashav and Chekkatah are in Meridian healing from their wounds and canon can go hang. Mind the tags, folks.
Let me say that again: MIND THE TAGS! This DOES have a happy, fluffy, smutty ending, I promise. But our boys are going to hurt first. Ikkotah especially.

Summary
A story of two middle-aged men finally discovering who they are and what they want to be - now that they finally have the freedom to choose.
or
In which a retired king and his equally retired captain ride off into the sunset, finding themselves, a kid, and just maybe a little love along the way.
While technically this could be read as a stand-alone, I highly recommend reading at least the Avad POV companion to this story: "In a City of Ice (There Are Burning Cathedrals". All of the stories are interconnected and build on each other.

Summary
Fashav, who shouldn't have survived the Embassy but somehow did because of something Aloy did, is tasked by his cousin Sun-king Avad with a pilgrimage. He shall walk in the footsteps of the Savior of Meridian and document what he can learn of her, to publish as a scroll for anyone who should wish to read it. He is joined by Marshals Chekkatah and Sentekka, who want to atone for the disrespect they showed her and honor the mercy they received by her hand and from her will, as well as many others who were touched by her in some way.
(Or, the author is replaying Horizon: Zero Dawn on her new PS5 and can't help but want to tie it in somehow.)
(2024.10 update: got my USB drive working and now most chapters have “postcard” illustrations from photomode)(This series is an exploration of the uses and limitations of potions, among other instances of what game mechanisms might feel like to those inside.)
