    Summary

    Nothing connects Orym more to his culture and his people than pulling summer from dew-coated capsules or smiling in time with a sudden blossom, but after Will's funeral, flowers have a new meaning.

    Summary

    “I’m an activist, Mr. Morgan,” Merlin explains.

    “I see that,” Knight Gwaine says.

    “I want this place to exist here forever. Forever and ever and ever.”

    “You mean until King Arthur climbs out of it?”

    “Yes,” Merlin says. “But after that, too, since I’m not like, 100% positive that he’s going to know what a fish ladder is. I figure we’ve got to do some work on that and probably his English before we let him go off into the wild.”

    “Right. Obviously, the English. But what happens if someone tries to put another body in the lake while you’re here?”

    Merlin doesn’t have an answer to that.

    (Three women's bodies are dumped into a lake, and detective Gwaine Morgan is assigned the case. He does not anticipate said lake to be guarded by a local 12 year-old and is even less prepared for what happens when the 12 year-old becomes his murderer's next target.)

    Summary

    Darth Sidious kills the Jedi. Anakin Skywalker saves the clones. In the aftermath, Barriss Offee does what she can.

    --

    The want for silence was gone. She wanted the discordant pain, like a bow shrieking across its strings with too much pressure, to lift, but only so she could again hear the lovely music. With that faded, what did Barriss Offee, alone in her own mind, want?

    “I want to help. I’ve always wanted to help.”

    “Kneel then,” Madame Nu said, “and give me your oath, Knight Offee.”
