Summary
Rules exist to protect the ones you love.
There were consequences to every rule broken.
A chain reaction that was unpredictable and dangerous.The following text from Dain Aetos journal has been faithfully transcribed from Navarrian into the modern language by Jesinia Neilwart, Curator of the Scribe Quadrant at Basgiath War College. All events are true, and names have been preserved to honor the courage of those fallen. May their souls be commended to Malek.

Summary
The last words Liam Mairi uttered to his little sister six years ago were that he loved her and he'd see her once she crossed the parapet.
Now, facing the very beast before her, Sloane Mairi has nothing waiting for her on the other side. Liam was gone. Only grief and rage simmer beneath her skin, fueling her across that damn parapet. She was going to kill Violet Sorrengail for ripping her brother away from her; she didn't care if she met Malek in the process, at least she'd be with Liam again.
But the reality isn't always as it seems. As the truth about her brother’s last days is revealed, the grief and rage remain, but the target of Sloane's wrath is replaced: Dain Aetos. The only problem is, she’s pretty sure she’s in love with him.

Summary
After the Battle of Draithus, Sloane is confused by the weight of two haunting words—you're life. Like an echo from her past, igniting a wildfire of hidden memories, she turns to Dain.
With their squad's trust in command already in tatters, they lean on each other like never before. Working together, testing their loyalties, their power and questioning the truths they were raised to believe and fight for. This is an imagining of what comes next focusing on the Fourth Wing Squad. Not canon compliant but respective as RY is a bloody legend.
