He finds respite in the quiet mountain town of Zephrah and inspiration for his new music and perhaps even something more in local widower Orym and his daughter.

Summary
Caleb Widogast does not belong here.
The world of sharp suits, board meetings, and billion dollar budgets is a far cry from Caleb’s preferred domain: the research lab. Where nobody cares about his faded T-shirts and raggedy jeans. But a year of industry experience will look good on his CV, and the hefty pay bump wouldn’t hurt either. How hard could a secretary gig be?
What he finds behind the glittering edifice of Auriga, Wildemount’s leading name in arcane technology, is CEO Essek Thelyss, who maintains his domain with an acid tongue and an iron fist. It’s difficult not to find him intriguing, this handsome, guarded, brilliant man. It’s even more difficult not to want to please him.
Caleb knows to keep it professional, though. Working late nights together at the office and lingering glances here and there don’t cross the boundaries of propriety.
That is, until they do.
Or: the one where Essek Thelyss loses focus and has a consensual workplace relationship.
Updates weekly on Mondays.

Summary
Something sharp and cold burrows between his shoulder blades and settles along his spine. The Shadowhand straightens his back, spits the blood from his mouth and steels himself for the second betrayal of the only friendship he’s ever had. The lie coats his tongue like quicksilver – it tastes a little like grief, and a little like victory.
»Hello Jester. My apologies, I could not contact you earlier. Sudden circumstances disallowed me the visit at last minute, but I am quite hale.«

Things are finally good. But are things ever truly quiet when your friends are The Mighty Nein?
Dr. Essek Theylss has been exiled to the worst place his mother could think of — bright, sunny Nicodranas. Luckily, unbeknownst to her, Essek has a friend there already. Unbeknownst to him, his friend has been impatient to drag him into her shenanigans for a very long time.
