Summary
First he loses his wife, then his sight (and with it, his career). His son grows up, his friends move on. But Anduin Lothar isn't sad, really. He's just a little slow on his descent. He just needs a little more time with his head in the clouds before he returns back to the grounded life. And maybe, he just really needs to ask the boy he passes every morning on his walk why the kid is always murmuring curses under his breath.

Summary
Become a photographer, Khadgar, they said. You'll travel the world, you'll meet all sorts of interesting people, they said. No one thought to mention the secret society of journalists, photographers, and artists that seem weirdly obsessed with keeping a legendary anonymous artist both alive and working. They never mentioned said legendary artist was a hot middle-aged man with too many secrets and too big plans. this is not the life Khadgar thought he'd have after dropping out of college, but at least it's not boring.
[Hi guys! Here's the Khadgar- and Medivh-centric part of Cloudcatching no one asked for!]

Summary
After many, many weeks of siege and battle, Anduin Lothar has finally claimed his prize: Victory, and with it, the city of Dalaran. City of Magic. But with Dalaran comes the real challenge: what is he to do with this city? Why would his king want it in the first place? And what is he to do about the young mage that can't seem to hold his tongue?

Summary
Jesse's lived a long, strange life. He gets up each morning and dresses as a cowboy, for fuck's sake, but even he has to admit getting a goodbye from beyond the grave is a bit trope-y.

Summary
Can you regret betraying someone if the betrayal was made before you met them? Before you bedded them? Before you cared for them? And does it matter if you betrayed them if you both would more likely to die before it was revealed?
Khadgar knew when he took this mission it would be impossible to pull off, but he hadn't anticipated the leap from "knew then" to "experiencing now." It's really too late to back out now, though, and considering all he's learning of Anduin Lothar, Khadgar isn't sure backing out is an option he would take even if he could.

Summary
Khadgar is the youngest member of the Expedition Team sent to explore the strange alien world Medivh discovered. So, naturally, Khadgar is only member of the team to be stranded in that strange alien world when their portal explodes. Trapped with limited supplies and a crystal that can only transmit one way, he needs to figure out what happened to destroy the portal, and perhaps he'll find his way back home in the meantime.

Summary
If Khadgar had a moment to spare for such things, he might have wondered where Anduin Lothar went when he vacationed. As it is, he doesn't have a moment to spare. Not until he finds himself joining Lothar for one unexpectedly.

Summary
At first, escorting an Archmage sounds boring. Easy. It's almost as if Khadgar had hired someone just to talk to on the long hike, someone who was otherwise superfluous. Or, perhaps, he hired someone because at the heart of his quest was a story, and a story must have an audience.

Summary
There's no reason for Anduin to attend his brother-in-law's Christmas Party. No reason at all. At least, not one he knows until after the party is over.

Summary
The sea is vast. To travel it takes time, and patience, and tolerance for boredom. With no one else for company, is it any wonder the ship and rider fall together as they do?

Summary
Magic alone won't kill a dragon. Steel alone won't kill a dragon. But magic-infused steel will. That is Khadgar's purpose. Bound to the King's ship, he supplies the magic the steel requires to kill dragons. Bound to the King's ship, he also witnesses the crime that begins the war. And once that binding is broken, Khadgar must bridge the gap, and find true justice, for if he doesn't, the war between man and dragon may just stain the sea red.

Summary
"You did your duty. You united the querulous kings and leaders, lead the war, fought with their forces. You lived and died by the strategies and battlefield logic, survived the magic and steel, the madness and the bloodlust until the adrenaline crystalized in your bones and battle was the burden you wished would end, either you it or you by it.
And as it so happens, you manage both. Your men will live to fight another day, and you will not.
Your hand, the dark gauntlet dirty from battle, falls from sight. Your heart, deprived of blood to pump, sears one last starburst of pain over your spent mind, and you allow yourself one last hope:Maybe your mage will have waited for you, after all these years."

Summary
They won’t let anyone return for the bodies. Not even Callan’s.
The first few days after death, all that happens is rot. Rot and carrion-eaters. On the third night, the soul is expelled from the remains. After that, after some days or weeks, the soul becomes corporeal. No one knows what happens in those days, but there are theories. Most believe death infects the soul, using it as a way to exist in the living realm, and drag other living into itself. Others will say the soul learns to be corporeal through madness and grief.
Whatever happens, the result is clear: those left unburied cannot truly pass on, and those who don’t pass on become corrupted.
It’s a terrible fate, one worse than death. One Khadgar won’t allow to happen to Callan Lothar.
