    Summary

    The first time Nemesis swoops in with unwanted aid, Melinoë is three quarters through a brute-force exorcism. She sweeps it aside, missing both the goddess and the shade she has targeted. A dram of her precious power drains away.

    “Nem,” she says, too furious to moderate her tone, “what do you think you’re doing?”

    The thirteen times Nemesis invites herself on Mel's quest.

    Summary

    "'To be honest, I think I ought to be asking you that question.'

    Because therein lies the issue. How could she? How could Lysithea stand to sit here, to take tea with the source of every waking horror, every nightmare inflicted upon her? To work with – work for – someone under the thumb of the monsters responsible, who might as well be one of them?

    To wake up every morning and stare at the broken phantom of what her aggregated suffering produced?

    If she were Lysithea, she’d have taken the dying shot at her in Derdriu."

    ***

    The Agarthans leave a trail of corpses in their wake, leave the shells of the living behind to pick up the pieces of their broken world, and like a twin-headed carrion bird, they needle at both.

    Edelgard/Lysithea, enemies to friends to something more. From the experiments, to separate sides of the war, to the same side of what becomes a different one altogether.

    A story about grief, acceptance, and about learning to make peace with the living, as you bury the dead.
