    Summary

    "After the summer's yield, Lord, it is time
    to let your shadow lengthen on the sundials
    and in the pastures let the rough winds fly."
    --Rainer Maria Rilke

    --

    All things in life are temporary . But Alhaitham's life always seems to come back to being about Kaveh.

    Summary

    With a sigh and the final pop of your laced fingers, you turn to your discarded linen shirt, only to find an unexpected visitor seated upon it like a king on a throne, staring at you with beady, slightly unsettling eyes.

    Your initial reaction is to flinch away.

    The grass snake raises its crowned head, alarmed by your attention, if not your presence.

    Perhaps you were truly born cursed.

    A mortal catches the eye of a lesser deity.

    Summary

    “Can I help you?” Alhaitham asked, settling back into his chair. He was never completely sure where he stood with Tighnari. Were they friends? Possibly. Probably. They drank together, at least. But Tighnari was a little too sharp for Alhaitham’s comfort; he always felt a little transparent under his eyes. But now those eyes weren’t focused on him. They weren’t really focused on anything. Tighnari looked half-mad with exhaustion, hair mussed and ears twitching wildly. He leaned one hand heavily against the doorway as he slumped in place.
    “Where is the Temple of Silence?”

     

    When Hermanubis turns against his host and leaves Cyno near dead, Alhaitham has too little time and too much desert to search in a desperate bid to find the Temple of Silence and the only people who might be able to save him. (Oh yeah. And then maybe he can confess.)

    Summary

    Kaveh tends to stop back in Aaru Village whenever he works in the desert. This time, his timing leaves a lot to be desired, and he gets caught up in all manner of things that will shake Sumeru down to it's foundations.

    Summary

    Every child of Sumeru, from Gandharva Ville to Port Ormos, knows that the Dragon nests in the high branches of the Great Tree. The children chant among their skipping games of Rukkadevata, who tamed the great beast before it brought its grief and calamity to wither all the great jungle, of Little Lord Kusanali, daughter of the great goddess, to whom the beast only listens. Their parents gossip about the vast trove of knowledge, hidden in the boughs of the tree, far beyond the reach of any mortal scholar, where only the bravest and wisest may tread and come out alive.

    Some old stories tell of scholars sent up in sacrifice to appease the Dragon’s anger, for when he is moved to fury, only the Dendro Archon can calm him, and when he is moved to sorrow, all the rivers flood and the jungle dies for his loneliness.

    ---

    A fairy-tale-esque story about a beauty, a beast, and of course, about love. No roses necessary.
