    Summary

    I wanted it to be published on ResearchGate, but they declined, so I made an account on AO3. Just kidding, it’s a fantasy story.

    To find a decent thrall in a burning nautiloid was somewhat... troublesome, but the Emperor was not one to give up. Not even when the only option left was, objectively, a disaster.

    Infected with an alien larva that will overwrite her body, Talula — a wizard whose spellcasting has grown rusty — has only days, a kleptomaniacal companion, and her analytical mind to find a cure. A shame that each of her well-considered decisions breeds a worse emergency.

    Now with art in chapter 21 and chapter 25.

    Summary

    This story has a few lines which represent a spoiler for Act 3, Wyll quest, and about the true identity of the Emperor. Please skip if you are not already aware of it, or do not like to be spoiled. It's narrated on a first person point of view, the Emperor's POV, to be more specific, and is a long, poetic-prose monologue.

    The idea is simple: Tav cannot sleep. The Emperor offers to help, and while he knows a magical sleep may be useful, he also knows it will only be a temporary relief. But he has another idea, which is helping Tav relax solely by the sound of his voice telling a story. Only problem... Tav... is prone to distractions?
