Summary
“Lord Helion,” Eris replied crisply. The infant in his arms let out another small whine and wriggled. “Congratulations are in order.”
Helion’s brow furrowed. Eris wasn’t implying-
“Your affair with my mother bore fruit,” Eris said bluntly, lacking much of the courtly manners he usually maintained. “We cannot keep him safe at the Forest House. Father has been suspicious for some time and… we fear what my father will do to him, if he ever receives proof of his parentage, which he’s sure to get with him in the same house. We can’t guarantee what his powers will be, or who he will resemble in time.”
Eris looked down at his brother, stroking his tiny red head with his thumb. His tone softened as he gazed at the tiny babe in his arms. “Mother has already named him Lucien. I know it would mean a lot to her if you would keep his name the same. She sent you a letter explaining everything,” he nodded at the low table in the middle of the arrangement of chairs, where a folded letter appeared with a pop. “She needs you to take Lucien. Protect him, raise him how she wishes she could raise him.”

Summary
An AU where Lucien and Jesminda fled Autumn to prevent the High Lord's discovery of their relationship.
When Lucien suddenly develops heir markers, he feels a strange pull back to Prythian that Jesminda doesn't share. Can't share, after all she's lost.
After a century, does Lucien still feel that they were meant to be? Or perhaps, does destiny have something else in store that he never could have expected? Will what's meant to be find a way of happening anyway?

Lessons from the Cauldron by Erm_Thanks

Summary
The blast of magic ripped through the room, and Lucien, as he had too many times in his life, found himself in the wrong place at the wrong time. As Tamlin lunged for Feyre to protect her - or to grab her - she hurled a knife in his direction, with her full strength. Tamlin dived to avoid it. And the blade, forced off target by the continued tide of raw magic, embedded itself in Lucien’s chest instead.
He gasped in pain as the knife found his heart.
He heard little of the ensuing conversation. But he did hear Tamlin’s voice. And the King’s conciliatory response.
And then Lucien was thrown backwards into the Cauldron.
---------
A one-shot where Lucien was wounded in Hybern's throne room, and to save his life, he was thrown into the Cauldron before the Archeron sisters.
What lessons could be learnt in the Cauldron's depthless waters?

Summary
The Lady of Autumn looked at the window, and answered in a low, serious voice that Eris had to strain to hear. “He has doubts that the babe is his. He wants to see him first before making an announcement to the court.”
Eris gaped, eyes darting over to the nurse in the corner that was cooing over a babe swaddled in a red knitted blanket. “Why would he have doubts, mother? What are you suggesting to me?”
His mother didn’t look at him right away. She was still just gazing at the sunlight trying to break through the tiny window, eyes a million miles away. Her hesitation told Eris all he needed to know. But still, he asked. “Should he have doubts, mother?”
Eris knew that his mother raising this with him meant something. It meant there was truth to the doubt. He knew his mother well enough by now to know that she did everything for a reason. It was one of the only ways she and his father were alike: both were secretive, both were purposeful. Always.
--------
A peek into some moments from Lucien's younger years in Autumn, from his birth to his exile. From the POV of Eris, as he watches his youngest brother survive in a cutthroat court that could never fully be his home.

Summary
Nesta falls off a cliff and dies while she’s on that terrible hike. There is also more of a plot, but honestly a big part of this is me getting mad yet again about the hike scene.

Summary
“To think I could have died,” Feyre whispered, her voice barely audible, breaking. “That our child could have died. And you... you would have let it happen without me ever knowing the risks. Without giving me the chance to fight.”
She took a staggering step back, every breath trembling with fury and revulsion.
“You are not my keeper, Rhysand. You are not my god. And right now… you are not my mate.”
