    Summary

    There was screaming. Or maybe there had been.
    Anaxagoras couldn’t tell.
    He lay on his side, his body pressed against the cracked pavement, his cheek grinding into the coarse, rough concrete. His coat, twisted and tangled like a flag left to rot in a forgotten battlefield, draped over him in disarray. The fabric felt heavier than it had any right to. Smoke slithered through the air, thick and suffocating, curling and clinging to his lungs as if it, too, wanted to drag him into the chaos. The acrid bite of burning rubber and scorched coolant clawed at his throat, making each shallow breath a bitter fight. Somewhere, a sob echoed, distant and breaking, the sound warped by the fog of pain pressing in around him.

    Summary

    After everything he'd worked for crumbled around him, Sunday makes a choice to board a train of dignified traveling warriors, expecting to be treated politely at best and coldly at worst.

    Summary

    Instead of acting as accomplice in the Sedition of Imbibitor Lunae, the craftsman of the High Cloud Quintet proved his loyalty to the Xianzhou with his life, ending the planned destruction before it ever began. When the general of the Luofu dived into Scalegorge Waterscape himself, he found only the half-mad Vidyadhara, and a hair stick, with a strand of soft white locks still strangled around the polished branch.

    The Ten-Lords commission ordered death as a penalty for manslaughter. Dan Feng pleads guilty. The preceptors argued for 500 years in the Shackling Prison.
    Jing Yuan made it 200, with three more centuries of service at the Alchemy commission.
    Then some more years slip away. The streets know him as a criminal driven mad by betrayal. The Vidyadhara know him as a High Elder plagued by past mistakes.
    Yet even maple trees, painted crimson by the autumn, may live to see another spring.

    Summary

    Thoughts fly by with wings that should belong to him. They hold his mind hostage to realities he denies.
    That golden song that led him towards the sky, soaring so high he nearly touched the sun, was the same to burn his wings into charred bones.
    A composer chained to the earth forevermore, fated to walk side by side with ghosts.
