    Summary

    Athena goes to Zeus in private to request Odysseus's freedom. Instead of striking Athena, Zeus offers her a deal. He will release Odysseus from Ogygia if Athena agrees to spend a year as a mortal in Odysseus's palace. With little say in the matter, she accepts.

    On Ithaca, Athena awakes in the body of a 12 year old servant, specifically an orphan servant with a reputation for poor performance. Which is good because Athena has no idea what she's doing and doesn't have much time to learn. Suitors have infected the palace, Telemachus is waiting for divine help that will never come, and Odysseus will be home in two weeks. She has a lot of work ahead of her, and it won't end when Odysseus retakes his throne.

    Summary

    Their countries have been at war for longer than any creature can remember, the reason for the fighting lost to time, and now only vengeance and hatred fuels the never-ending conflict.

    As heir to the Sun Kingdom, Sunburst longs for the peace and harmony that ruled Equestria once upon a time. He would do anything to stop this war, even accepting the proposal of Empress Starlight Glimmer―the terrifying, unfeeling ruler of the Moon Empire―to unite the two royal families into one.

    Trust. Trust is all Starlight asks of Sunburst, but it may be more than he can give.

    (Loosely based on the book Hawksong.)

    Summary

    “You think I didn't protect her?” Eris pressed. “That I didn't take blows meant for her or for my brothers? ”

    A faint flicker of golden light danced along his fingers. Helion’s breath caught as he saw it.

    “You left,” Eris continued, voice low but heavy with judgment. “You had a choice. I didn't.”

    The magic erupted fully, a controlled blaze of bright light that shimmered across the polished stone, sharp as a blade, precise as the words that accompanied it, and so very clearly of Day.

    Eris raised his hand between them, letting the light trace along his fingers. “You left us there,” he said, voice filled with centuries of restrained bitterness. “And I will not take the blame for your failure, Father.”

    Or: In which the Lady of Autumn held one more secret, and Beron’s favored son was not his son at all.
