    Summary

    “The rumors suggested you were quite adept at sating even the most discerning appetites,” Alhaitham says.

    Kaveh huffs. “It’s not like you to believe rumors. You prefer to verify the validity of them yourself.”

    Two years after moving back to Sumeru City, Kaveh learns the identity of his mysterious benefactor.

    Summary

    Years ago, Kaveh tore their joint research paper conclusion page in half, walked out of the office, and told Alhaitham to live his life his way.

    Alhaitham listened—on the surface.

    Underneath, he kept the torn pages in a drawer and spent the next few years watching from the margins: sitting in the back row of Kaveh’s lectures, nudging audits in the Bazaar, turning monsters away from a desert camp, rearranging variables so the world would hurt him a little less.

    When rain and debt and bad timing finally push them back under the same roof, Kaveh discovers what’s been living between the lines of Alhaitham’s life this whole time: a vow he never said out loud, and doesn’t quite know how to return.

    Or, Alhaitham spends years yearning for and protecting Kaveh in ways Kaveh was never meant to notice.

    Once, Alhaitham's grandmother gave him a journal, to help him ask and answer questions he wasn't sure how to ask.

    In the end, it becomes about the question--and answer--that is Kaveh.

    Summary

    Lord Kusanali was safe. Azar was exiled, Cyno and the Traveler were bouncing around Sumeru finishing off the remaining Fatui hanging around, and Tighnari had recovered from his injury. On paper, everything was going well.
    So why was Alhaitham shaking as he attempted to unlock his front door for the first time in weeks?

    In the vulnerability of injury and exhaustion, Alhaitham can’t quite find the strength to deal with his emotions and spirals.
