Summary
Imogen didn’t weep when her mother and sister burned for their part in the rebellion. She couldn’t afford to. The kingdom of Navarre had already decided her fate. Survival was a distant hope, a cruel joke in a world that wanted them dead.
Then Xaden Riorson made a deal.
In exchange for their lives, he would take their punishment and they, in turn, would be given one impossible chance: to enter the Riders Quadrant at Basgiath War College. A battlefield disguised as a school, where their only path to survival is bonding with a dragon and fighting for a kingdom that despises them.
Imogen and Garrick—both orphaned and stripped of everything they know—are placed together in the new foster system, forming an unbreakable bond as they navigate a world that sees them as traitors’ children. Forced to rely on each other for survival, their relationship deepens from an alliance of necessity into something far more complex.

Summary
Prior to Xaden's third year, your relationship thrived. You became each other's comfort in the storm of Basgiath - until the General's daughter turned up in the Rider's Quadrant.
At first it was simple - then it wasn't. The minute she bonded Tairn, everything changed. Not sure if it was you that pulled away or the result of being pushed aside, you let the unworthiness fester. Then you took matters into your own hands, disappearing, just like your signet.
Little did you know, Xaden was torn. He didn't know how to balance it all and in trying to find the balance lost everything. He'll stop at nothing to get you back, to make you understand your worth - but, is he too late?

Summary
I was never supposed to exist.
Not in the eyes of Basgiath, not in the eyes of my family, and certainly not in the eyes of my mother. I was trained to fight, not to live. Given orders, not choices. And yet, here I stand—alive, unwanted, and in the way. But I'm too useful to kill.
The Marked Ones should hate me. The dragons should ignore me. But something is wrong. Garrick Tavis watches too closely. Xaden Riorson hesitates when he shouldn’t. And the dragons?
They defend me.
That is not supposed to happen.
Names have power. And the one I fought to leave behind?
It might just be the one that gets me killed.

Summary
Today is Conscription Day. The day I finally reunite with my friends--if I can manage to cross the Parapet and join the Rider's Quadrant. I haven't seen Imogen in a year, and the others for even longer. It feels like walking into my worst nightmare. I'm forced to attend Basgiath and one day join the army that executed my family, all because they want to be liars. I don't know what the plan is, or how we're all going to survive. Will we stay together or go our separate ways? All I know is the moment I spot Xaden Riorson, I can no longer think straight.

I wouldn't say you need to have read the Empyrean series to read this, but I will say that there could be potential spoilers for all three books, so read at your own risk.Everything owned by Rebecca Yarros, apart from any OCs :)

Bláithín's Fourth Wing by Nyx_Nightshade_76564953
Fandoms: The Empyrean - Rebecca Yarros

Summary
Bláithín (Blah-heen) Mairi should have been able to excel in the Rider's Quadrant. She should have been happy to join her brother and the other Marked Ones in the Quadrant, because even though it was supposed to be a death sentence; at least she would be with the people she cared about. But how was she supposed to survive when she had never been taught how to fight? And how could she navigate being in love with two of her friends, friends that she had not seen in six years?
Also, very obvious disclaimer. I do not own any characters that belong to Rebecca Yarros, any plots/scenes that seem like they came from the books, also belong to Rebecca Yarros.

Summary
A sinking terror settles in my gut—the kind all protagonists must feel when the weight of responsibility finally lands.
And I laugh.
It bursts from me—wild, raw, uncontrollable. It doesn’t even sound like me. Too sharp. Too jagged. Too much.
But I can’t stop.
I can’t temper it. It races through me, drowning out reason, swallowing all sense.
I laugh until I cry. Until I grieve.
I grieve for my life—my old life.
For the few friendships I had.
For the few people I left behind.
For the good in the people who hurt me most.
I grieve.
And they let me. They say nothing. They do nothing.
I grieve until I laugh. Until I cycle back to crying. Until I finally, finally, grieve myself.
The sobs are ugly, raw—ragged sounds ripped from my throat, the cry of a wounded animal.
They don’t relent. They don’t let up.
And I panic.
I can’t stop the emotion rising, swelling, breaking over me like a wave—unchecked, unstoppable.
Until it swallows me whole.
Until, for the second time in less than twenty-four hours, my vision darkens.
And the blackness takes me.

Nyx
For six years, I’ve lived alone.
Never forgotten—never free.
Ghosts chase me. Memories hunt me.
Only the dark is safe.
But Basgiath is no place for ghosts—memories don’t stay buried.
And the bond I was forced to abandon?
The one I clung to when I had nothing left?
It refuses to stay silent.Xaden
She stands before us, scarred and silent.
Then she drops—without a whisper.
My shadows slip free before I can stop them.
Garrick’s control shatters.
And I know.
The Nyx I knew could never keep quiet.
But this Nyx? When she runs?
Silence.
Someone hurt our mate. Broke her.
And we will burn the world to make them answer for it.-

Summary
Xaden Riorson has known Avari Solaris her entire life. With him learning to take over his father's kingdom, she was by his side through every moment learning to serve as his royal advisor. At least that's what it was before Navarre ruined it all. Separated for roughly four years, raises the question, have things changed between them? Probably not, but she can't help but worry maybe it has changed. Either way Conscription Day was going to bring answers, and the chance to finish what their parents died for.
Navarre should have known better than to have kept the Prince of Tyrrendor and the last Solaris apart, because as anyone who knew them could tell you. They would tear the world apart to reach each other's side.

Summary
Elys Montclair was born into privilege, but her future was never hers to decide. As the daughter of a powerful noble, her fate was sealed—marry the man her father chose, secure an alliance, and live a life of quiet obedience. But Elys has never been one to accept a cage, no matter how gilded. Defying expectations, she forgoes a life of arranged marriage for one of purpose, training as a healer at Basgiath.
When an opportunity arises to be stationed at Samara—a war-torn fortress on Navarre’s front lines—she takes it without hesitation. Healing soldiers in the midst of battle is dangerous, but it is her choice. And for the first time, her life is her own.
Then Garrick Tavis arrives.
A dragon rider with sharp hazel eyes and a grin full of trouble, he is everything she should avoid—reckless, deadly, and far too charming for his own good. But their paths keep crossing, and with each encounter, Elys finds herself drawn to him in ways she can’t ignore.
As war threatens to consume Samara, Elys must decide if freedom means facing the battle ahead alone—or if, just maybe, some risks are worth taking. Even the ones that come with a smirk and a penchant for making her blush.
