    Summary

    An attempt to maintain consistent contact with the Warrior of Light while he is traveling causes more problems than it solves. [Set loosely post EW, start of patch.]

    --

    “How do you care for the scales?” G’raha asks before he can talk himself out of it. Estinien stretches his legs out until he takes up as much of the seat in the sun as G’raha’s smaller frame will allow, tail a lazy pendulum back and forth where it lies draped across the cushion. “While all of my attention will be spent on ensuring we can reverse this, I would know how best to care for you– that is, your body, in the meantime.”

    Summary

    "Unfortunately, I doubt I will be able to make your regular training times due to other engagements. If it is not too much trouble, perhaps we could meet in the evenings, when both of our schedules are lighter?"
    Estinien raises an eyebrow. "So…private lessons?"
    "Yes, if you are amenable to such an arrangement."

    Although Vrtra's new simulacrum is proficient in combat, he requests additional lessons in order improve his skills and save Azdaja from the Thirteenth. And so Estinien sets to training not only the soldiers of the Radiant Host, but also the satrap himself in lancecraft -- and may find himself developing some tender feelings for the ruler of Radz-at-Han in the process.

    Summary

    While dealing with business in the Meghaduta, Vrtra suddenly feels the brush of Nidhogg's aether, familiar, frenzied, and pained. Yet Nidhogg is dead, and such a thing shouldn't be possible...unless something terrible has happened to Estinien, who left hours earlier for a hunt.

    Summary

    Estinien burned so brightly, so furiously. The Warrior of Light could not remember what it was to burn, even as she took up her lance and commanded the dragon within her. In the cold recesses of her heart, she wondered what it would be like to be the target of his fire. Would she break? Would he break against her in the effort? Or would she too ignite?
