“Get up get up get up!”
Something heavy landed on Varro’s stomach. He sat up just as Zerafin turned the lights on.
“What?”
Zerafin was grinning. The thing he’d thrown at Varro was a duffel bag. “We’re going on vacation! Get up, start packing, we’re leaving at dawn!”That’s right, iiiiit’s… Vangavayen Vacation Time! Featuring our very favorite captive audience and peanut gallery, the highly trained and extremely professional innermost members of the Imperial Guard! Please give them your applause and moral support; they’re going to need it.

Summary
When Jullanar is asked by her fellow members of the Red Company to impersonate a reclusive scholar so that they might infiltrate a gala and steal a magical artifact, of course she says yes. No matter that she's beginning to question her place in the Company, or that she feels her skills meager in comparison to those of her friends. It is a simple, straightforward deception—or so she thought. When she has to pretend that she and Pali are married, things get rather . . . complicated.

"Mother had to leave her bees at the dower house when she married Mr. Buchance," Jemis said as he and Jack ambled through the coppice wood of Arguty Manor, his words puncturing one of the slightly awkward silences that still fell between them more often than Jack wished.

Summary
She had been thinking about settling down. She had always talked about a nebulous someday, when she might have children and a cat and a little shop called Elderflower Books. Sometime in the last year or two, without her notice, it had slipped from someday to any day now.
Maybe it was Damian and Pharia who had put the idea in her head, with all their talk of taking their little children and going to live in Astandalas, beneath the very nose of the Emperor. A final jab, a fitting retirement.
Well, anyway. Someday had been left too late.

Summary
“Oh, Pali, it’s beautiful.” She felt lighter than she had in days.
“It is.” Pali gave her hand a fierce squeeze. When Jullanar looked over, Pali was turning her head back to the water. The air was chilly, and Jullanar was certain that the water would be colder than she’d like it to be, but Pali’s hand was warm and Jullanar’s heart was like an ember glowing after a blaze.
“Not quite the Sea of Stars but it’s very close, don’t you think?”

Summary
They were waiting to greet him in the tower, his mother and grandmother and Leona, and even Uncle Kip—he was Uncle Kip here, undoubtedly, dressed in shabby linen tunic and sarong and looking thoroughly Islander, thoroughly relaxed. Gaudy felt a strange sense of vertigo, looking at him, with the layers of court robes heavy on his own shoulders and a sailor shouting in a Solaaran accent behind him. Then the moment stretched and snapped, and a wave of rightness washed over him. Home again.
Saya Kalikiri had had an odd twinkle in her eye when she granted him this sudden holiday, unasked for, and handed him a stack of dispatch cases taller than he was to work through on the trip out. He was to have a week's holiday in the Vangavaye-ve, and no work to do on the journey back, so he certainly couldn't complain. He saw that same twinkle now in the eyes of his family as they greeted him, and was confirmed in his suspicions that the trip was for more than a job well done.

Summary
Once, when he was young, the poet descended the stairs of the tower and tried to open the door that he found there. The magic within it had howled his own fear right back at him, and he had gone back up the stairs and never ventured down them again.
Now that remembered fear is like a sigh, the merest wisp next to the freedom roaring in his ears. He does not know what it means, that the Empire has fallen, only that it has. The sprites in the tower, too, have been freed, and it is empty like a cavern is empty, a yawning, echoing, horrible place. The poet suspects it has always been that way, and the stillness is only allowing him to see it with fresh eyes.
He says aloud, “I am leaving.”
