Summary
“We have not only been transported into these different bodies, into this part of the Empire,” Caleb continued. “Oskar and Guinevere are also...the characters in a novel.”
Essek blinked at him. “A novel,” he repeated. “Might I ask what the, er, genre of this novel would be?”
Caleb winced. Bit his lip. “Trashy smut,” he replied.
Essek dropped his head into his hands. “I don’t suppose you will tell me that the woman you currently embody meets up with a human from the Empire.”
Caleb gave a laugh that held anything but mirth. “Oh, my friend, no. She falls in love with Oskar the half-orc. It is, after all, called Tusk Love.”

Summary
With the world saved and Essek given clemency for his crimes, now the wizards just have to deal with rogue scourgers, their pasts, den politics, and the pesky issue of life expectancy.
In addition to deleted and alternate scenes from "Two Roads Diverged" this now continues the story of Essek and Caleb navigating their roles as "Examples of International Unity" while also trying to have a genuine relationship as two people with a lot of baggage. Expect drama, humor, action, smut, and eventual cameos by everyone's favorite drow himbo.

Summary
Long ago, the Cerberus Assembly developed the Soltryce Academy and, with it, Söldner Squads; mercenary teams trained and deployed by the Academy and her sister Hall to fight monsters, protect notable people and locations, and obtain long-forgotten powerful relics. Everyone knows a Söldner Squad will complete their mission no matter the cost and be rewarded in gold and jewels for it. Despite their black reputation, Squads are always welcomed for the protection and power they bring.
When a group of no-name misfits and low-level adventurers manages to take down a fiend the Academy was sent to hunt, they draw the attention of several powerful people and must contend with the consequences of their actions.

Summary
It’s ridiculous, the way it makes his cheeks heat and the tips of his ears burn. How his heart beats a little faster inside his chest even after Essek is gone. One would think it would be the baring of skin that would make one flush, yet here Caleb is, squirming instead at the thought of its absence.
(In the Dynasty, status is shown by how many layers of clothing one wears. Naturally, Caleb develops a thing about that when it comes to Essek.)

Summary
A magical mishap involving Halas' spells turns Essek into a twelve year old - or drags a twelve year old Essek from another timeline? that's unclear - with the Mighty Nein unable to stop it. (It's their fault. Fully and utterly.)
It's a race to turn Essek back into his real self before the Cerberus Assembly find out about his vulnerable state and take him out - or before Beau shoves him into a locker.

Summary
Aeor is for lovers. And Wild Magic. Combine the two plus two squishy wizards pining for each other and you have the best romance trope in existence.
Consists of short, unrelated chapters, each centered around a different Wild Magic effect (plus some of my own). There will be mild slow burn romance through most of the chapters and they are assumed to be chronological, though can be read in any order.

Summary
In the aftermath of a great war between the Dynasty and the Dwendalian Empire, laws have come down prohibiting the sale and consumption of alcohol in order to promote productivity in healing the Empire.
This was viewed as a terrible idea.
Certain places in Wildemount now thrive as hubs of criminal enterprise, bootlegging, and secret entertainment, and when the most prominent crime boss in the land is found dead at his own party, it triggers a series of events that entangle the lives of three groups of interconnected people. Everyone has a secret. Everyone could have a motive. And if the case isn't solved, an innocent man might get the axe.
Welcome to Zadash.

Summary
Caleb wakes up on Rumblecusp with no memories of who he is or how he got there. The people around him seem to care for him greatly, and he wants to do his best to help them, even when they fail to return his memories with their divine magic.
Many things are confusing, but none more so than what appears to be his personal journal, written in a cipher he can no longer remember. Perhaps the handsome drow his friends brought him to in Rosohna may be of help.

Summary
“Essek, It’s me.” His voice was soft, almost pleading.
“I don't know you.”
“What do you mean? Essek, what's happening.”
“I don't know you. I don’t know where I am
“You're scaring me.”
*********************
If Essek had had to explain his current life to his past self he wouldn't have believed it. He, in fact, didn't believe it. When a spell goes wrong and an alternate version of Essek appears, He and Caleb must navigate meeting each other again with only one of them remembering their shared history. -

Summary
It was insane. A waste of a spell that could lead to getting killed by a stranger, although he had no idea why someone from Tal’Dorei would have it out for him.
On the other hand, wasn’t this why he began traveling to begin with? To be far away from all the forces trying to kill him or draw him back into politics, to gain some perspective by looking outside himself and his narrow-minded goals? Essek pressed a thumb against his mouth as he contemplated this, scanning the paper to a scrap of fabric pinned to the bottom of the map. It was striped purple and gold, a colorful addition to the parchment, and it took Essek a moment to understand why it was there. He could use it to teleport.

Essek gets a mysterious message from a stranger asking if he wants to join him for brunch.

Summary
“You seek my nature. It is a lonely endeavor. Would you like to join me on this path?”
“Yes.”—
After a thousand years, a divine champion awakes in a lightless cave above Port Damali with little memory to speak of and a beacon in his hands.
Even as he struggles to piece the past together and process what he has lost while he slept, the future demands he answer for the crimes of his elders. It offers little in return, but perhaps there are fragments of possibility awaiting him.

Summary
It’s childish, Essek’s mother has told him once, to think of different worlds and different timelines instead of living in your own. Those worlds and timelines can be harvested for power, their potential can be reaped, but it’s childish, Essek’s mother has explained, to wonder if there is a world in which he is smarter, quicker, better. It’s even more childish, Essek has learned all on his own, to wonder if there is a world in which his family loves him more than they love their made-up god.
So he is, of course, being a child. But perhaps there is a world in which he can have the Mighty Nein.
(Or: five times Essek traveled to different timelines for the Mighty Nein.)

Summary
They haven’t seen each other in months. This is the only reason that Essek allows himself to be dragged to the bright, humid pit of Nicodranas in the middle of summer, for a celebration that he has no interest in partaking in.
That, and because Jester asked him so nicely in her message.
