    Summary

    ”What are you doing here?”

    Lauma exhaled. Had she been holding her breath? Nefer hadn’t noticed. “I teach here now.”

    ”In the same university as mine.”

    ”Yes.”

    ”In the same department that I teach in.”

    ”Indeed.”

    ”Having class slots immediately after mine.”

    ”Mm-hmm.”

    ”In the same room from which I would exit before your class.”

    ”Yes.”

    Nefer felt her nails digging into her palms.

    ”You asshole.”

    Summary

    “You’re making that face,” Nefer noted, looking at Lauma. “The one you make when you feel the need to burden yourself with the weight of the world.”

    The Moonchanter shifted uncomfortably. "Truthfully,” she began, “I worry we’re in over our heads here. It took all we had to defeat Rerir last time. I’m unsure if that’s something we’d be able to do again.”

    Lauma and Nefer must navigate a new disaster in Nod-Krai. Only this time, they're navigating their strange new dynamic as well.

    Summary

    Steady and composed, Lauma walked over to Nefer, her every step deliberate. She raised her hand above Nefer's face, the silvery gleam of her blood catching the light in the dimness around them. Drops of blood flowed like rain in barren land, the promise of renewal and vitality imbued within them. Silver met brown as her blood mingled with Nefer's own. The blood dried in patches along Nefer's lower eyelid and cheek, the colour of rust - shiny, but faded. Nefer shuddered as the blood continued to drip but she remained still. She fought the tremors in her body and summoned every last ounce of energy to stay steady.

    After the battle against Rerir, Nefer is left blind and dependent on Lauma’s care for her recovery. The event pulls the two women together, compelling them to face the undeniable closeness that neither can easily dismiss. As vulnerability slips through the cracks of the walls they've built between them, they find themselves drawn to each other in ways they thought had faded with time.

    Summary

    After a lifetime spent dealing in secrets, Nefer has perfected the art of control—her emotions, her image, even the dangerous truth of what she really is.

    Lauma cares not for that illusion.

    Lauma is everything Nefer isn’t: open where she is guarded, sincere where she is calculating, and utterly impossible to read. What begins as intrigue grows into intimacy, and two creatures marked by divine strangeness find in one another the kind of understanding they had long forgotten was possible.
