    Summary

    "I regret that I can't be here with you more," Essek began, talking firmly over Caleb's automatic protests, "and I know that as much as our arrangement is … acceptable, in the Empire, I feel as though we have held ourselves constrained by standards that are not our own." He hesitated for a moment and pulled back, so that he could meet Caleb's eyes. Caleb nodded for him to continue. "I talked to the archmage. Astrid."

     

    Essek knows that Caleb doesn't like to sleep alone.

    Summary

    Eadwulf Grieve died long ago. He doesn’t know exactly when. Maybe it was when he cracked open the skull of the boy he loved. Maybe it was earlier, when he agreed to give his body to the empire. Maybe during the long years of service. All he knows is that for a long time, he had felt like a shadow of himself.

    Eadwulf meets Caleb Widogast outside of a classroom in Soltryce, and maybe they can learn to know each other.

    Summary

    “This could kill us,” he says.
    Essek’s hold on his hand tightens. Eadwulf presses his forehead against Caleb’s right temple and closes his eyes like he is reminding himself that they’re both real. Astrid laughs, a low, wounded sound.
    “Then it kills us,” she says.

     

    The first five years after Trent, they rip the world apart and sew it back together again with crooked, bloody stitches.

    Summary

    Caleb might've declined the Martinet's offer to become the new Archmage of Civil Influence, but that does not mean the drama of the Cerberus Assembly is done with him.
