Summary
It does me no good;
violence has changed me.
My body had grown cold like the stripped fields;
now there is only my mind, cautious and wary.
- Louise Gluck, from October in "Averno"As a girl, you always dreamed of dragons, great and terrible things, scales beautiful as they laid waste to the fields below. Used to chase their mortal descendants in the gardens, head full of fantasy. What else could you do but dream of what it was like to fly, knowing that you would die in the valley which refused to be named home.
You never once thought to dream of what would happen when the dragon in the mountain called for its brides.

Summary
There’s a house at the end of the holler. An elegant old thing, the women think. Bought with blood money, the men mutter.
They say a man lives there.
Well, they say someonelives there, but they aren’t quite so kind as to call him a man. A devil, really. He frightens them, though it’s not that hard a task.
He’s temptation, blood red eyes, hair like winter, spinning gold out of nothing at all.
Nobody ever talks about the real monster lurking in his shadow. To give something a name is to invite it inside, and while the people living on the tracks of the N-109 are a fearful, superstitious bunch, nobody would ever be so bold as to call them stupid.

Summary
When you buy an old abandoned house, you're typically concerned with the horrors that exist outside of it. A storm sends rain through the roof, a burglar eager to steal what few charming possessions remain, an unruly raccoon upends the garbage. Normal, mundane, everyday problems.
It never crosses your mind that the real horror exists inside the house, but it is all too eager to consider you.

Summary
What goes too long unchanged destroys itself.
The forest is forever because it dies and dies and so lives.
- Tales from Earthsea; Dragonfly, by Ursula Le GuinThe Bene Gesserit have long since destroyed the old ways, the ten-thousand-year-old faiths and fictions by which the gods were defined - the many-faced gods of the river who gave and took, or the gaping mouthed hunger of the desert gods and their winding paths - and instead taught a new faith. The Golden Path, the One Who Points the Way, a miserable saint who would lead us to paradise. Those who did not believe were allowed their ignorance, components of rituals that would pave the way.
Not all gods faded, despite the sister's slow plague of faith. Not all were content to die, rotten and forgotten by their followers, and instead thrived in the dark.
Waiting for the day they might black out the sun.

Summary
She woke up all but burrowed under the covers, warmer and cozier than she'd been in longer than she could remember. On the verge of sleep and waking something was nagging at her. Fighting to stay asleep she wrapped her fist tighter around the edge of the blankets, giving them a tug.
The blankets came freely and she burrowed deeper into her pillow. The one hand she had out in the cool air of the room reached out to the other side of the mattress and stretched out the stiffness. That was when she realized what had awoken her in the first place.
Cigarette smoke.

Summary
“Where did your rescuer go?”
“Me'ven? He was just here… I owe him a life debt.”
“Goodluck trying to tell him that.” A nearby foodtender muttered, “He’s of the Old Way. They don’t accept life debts.”
“A Traditionalist?”
“Nyac. The Olden Way.” The Mando shrugged.
The Olden Way held different values from most Resol’nare. Their Creed kept their Ways close, they kept their secrets with their lives. It was difficult to find information on them because they themselves were hard to find. They were ghosts.
The only reason Jaster knew that much was because one of his closer Verde was once of a Covert. His Creed was broken and while he sought Redemption to return in the beginning, he found his soulmate who was not of his Creed.
“Olden Way or not, our tendons have granted him the life debt of my ad and me. One for saving his life, and one because I failed to be there to protect it.” Jaster muttered. “We’ll find him.”
—-Timetravel + Soulmate Au
In which Jaster is a simp for his very pretty, very confused Mandalorian soulmate. Din is just confused why his ship is suddenly considered modern and why fuel is suddenly cheap.Series

Summary
"Player recognized. Welcome to the Culling Games."
Your eyes snapped open to a world you did not recognize. Large stone towers with bright, flat lanterns loomed over you. No, not stone—concrete. Apartment buildings. Offices. These were not lights, but billboards. The modern terms surfaced somehow, they echoed from memories that weren't yours.
You've awakened in a different body, in a different time. And though your past has been stripped away, fragments rise to the surface, reminding you that you were never meant to be here. Now, in the middle of the Culling Games, you're stuck with more questions than answers and no breaks to find them.
Who were you?
To whom belongs the aching void in your memories?
And how did you awaken in modern-day Japan… after your brutal execution a thousand years ago?tl;dr: You wake in modern day Japan with fractured memories of love and home from the Heian era. Why is the hole in your past shaped exactly like him, while he doesn't recognize you at all?
