    Summary

    A soul that’s born in cold and rain
    Knows sunlight, sunlight, sunlight.
    - Sunlight by Hozier.

    This is an AU in which Pei Ming caught the special attention of the Heavenly Emperor before Xie Lian did, and it did not go better for him than it later went for Xie Lian.
    Pei Ming was the Martial God of the North who fell from Heaven. He got scars on his face, as permanent as memory. He was the tyrant of a vast but short-lived empire and ascended as God of Revenge. He fell a second time for an act of kindness. He became the nameless soldier, who recognizes his lover under every guise. His lover is Gray Shadow Chasing Sun, one of the four Great Calamities.
    And then Pei Ming reunited with his lover and ascended a third time, as God of Love.
    Credit for many amazing ideas goes to EmperorAlpaca and other participants of that fascinating Discord conversation.

    Summary

    Part Verdi, Part Schiller, All Problem. A thousand thanks to @OneInSpats for the read-though and for the immortal words 'Peaches are sexy, eye removal is not!'

    ‘What kind of man says ‘I would have you by my side’ after I told him half the world curses his name? That his hand sows nothing but death?’ Then Philip obscures both his thoughts and the light in his vision like an eclipse, mouth eager as it seeks his own and takes the air out of it.
