One Traveler Long Stood

by thenorthface

Maia takes a deep breath, looking up to catch his gaze. Her face twitches, caught in a pre-emptive wince. “Alec’s getting married,” she says. "To a man this time. Khalid Elmasry of the Cairo Institute.”“Oh,” Magnus says, careful to make sure his face is wiped of all expression. “I see.” (Or: Everyone in the Shadow World thinks Alec Lightwood is getting married to the strong, handsome Shadowhunter visiting from Egypt... except for Alec.)

A Nuisance Though Thou Art

by wedgetail

Three and a half years have passed since Empress Chenelo's death. Not even the imperial family gives much thought to her son, who is in the care of Setheris Nelar, in the distant Western Marshes and far from the court. But vexing news come from Edonomee: Nelar is dead and Maia is without a guardian. The emperor will have to decide on a new arrangement. For the sake of expediency, Nemolis volunteers to go to Edonomee and bring his half-brother to the Untheileneise Court. After all, the sooner a new guardian is found, the better.

as far as I could get

by astardanced

She had let go of everything else; hope of a retrieval, hope of an apology, hope of seeing her sisters or her son again. It would be enough to know. She did not have to do anything with the knowledge. Ulis would understand. Surely he would."To the best of your knowledge, Othala— is the Archduke Maia alive and safe?”Thara Celehar stared at her for a very long moment, his grip on her trembling fingers very firm. Then he said;“Sister— he is.”---In a Thu-Tetar nunnery, the Dach'othalo asks a Sister of Ulis: Did you enter this place as Chenelo Drazharan?

An Empire of Difference

chant

by astardanced

Maia allowed himself one glance, which gave him a good view of, rather than Ciris’s expensive wallpaper, the determinedly neutral expressions of the emperor, Vedero, and Nazhira. They knew how thou wast living, he realised. They all knew. The emperor had said, we confess we know little of the circumstance, but there was a lot that one could contrive not to know if one was willing to put the effort in.“Thou’rt a Drazhadeise Archduke now,” Ciris said, with every appearance of a man sharing some sort of generous nicety. He clapped him on the shoulder with slightly excessive force, and beamed. “Shouldst try to enjoy it! Eh?”There was not, Maia found, a lot that one could say in response to that.

don't tell 'em what you told me, don't even tell 'em that you know me

by astardanced

It became, he realised quickly, pervasive. All the tiny things which had not been prepared when the Wisdom of Choharo had crashed had now finally trundled through the pipeline, almost a year on. The new coins fully entered circulation, which was protocol. Papers and documents were properly headed with the new imperial seal, which was protocol; Varenechibel's portrait in Beltanthiar IV’s atrium, the formal centrepoint of court, was replaced with Edrehasivar’s, which was protocol. It did not take Setheris a long look to know it was a petulantly good likeness, devoid of all the tiny vanities his predecessors had snuck in; although Setheris was convinced it was painted so the pallid eyes followed you.

Soul Flowers

by faeriedustlightwood

There is a day where your soul mark appears, it isn’t known exactly why it’s different for everyone. It’s not like it can be preempted, one moment the skin beneath your collarbone on your left side is clear and free, the next you get the birth flower, date and initials of your fated.
