Summary
“I, for one,” Hythlodaeus said, lifting an observational finger, “wouldn’t mind a little more life, with mine being so prematurely cut short.”
Emet-Selch’s peaceful expression soured. “You can’t be serious,” he said with a huffy cross of his arms.
“The star shall surely be saved, and I owe absolutely nothing more to Zodiark.” Hythlodaeus said, his smile the practiced placating curve that D’fhiri had grown so familiar with in Elpis. “And while you have had many lifetimes to explore, I would like my own chance to see the world our dear friend loves so much.”
Post-Endwalker Fix-It, in which Hades and Hythlodaeus choose to stay.
When the Warrior of Light, D'fhiri Jinh, convinces the two men bound to her soul to linger with her in the world of the living for a little while longer, her joy is palpable to those she loves. Her established partner, G'raha, is suspicious and protective, while Emet-Selch and Hythlodaeus explore how they might fit in to her life in a more practical way. What does it mean to suffer to live, and to choose a beginning rather than an end, all for the sake of love long lost and rediscovered anew?

Summary
“I fail to understand why you continue to pester me,” D’fhiri grumbled, stalking north towards Fanow. Emet-Selch dragged his feet behind her in interminable pursuit. “Surely there is better company to keep elsewhere.”
“And miss your deeds and misadventures?” His words held the cadence of a sardonic joke, with none the humor. “On the contrary, Warrior. If I am to while away the minutes with anyone, I would rather it be you.”
“And why is that?”
He took so long to answer the question that she almost forgot she had asked.
“You are simply good company.”
During a moment of shared vulnerability, the Warrior of Light discovers that Emet-Selch harbors attraction towards her. Resolving to use this knowledge to further the Scions' cause, she decides to seduce him.

Summary
“I am performing poorly as Emissary, indeed, if I have not even heard of the place my—.” He stumbled on his words, blushing. “That is, the place my friend calls home.”
“Why all these questions?” she asked. “I thought you wished to keep me at a mysterious arm’s length, all the better for your enticement.”
“It seems the only thing I am enticed by today,” he said, “is my ravenous curiosity for everything about you.”
After spending a long day or more securing Pandaemonium for its warders, the Warrior of light, D'fhiri, and her two Ancient friends allow themselves a break from their tireless endeavor. Elpis researchers are celebrating the spring equinox on the floating islands, and they would be remiss to let it pass. While Erichthonios arranges sleeping quarters for the two of them, Themis and D'fhiri get to know each other better, the attraction between them sparking, kindling into flame.

Summary
There was a gentle fluttering of robes, and when she heard the individual draw near enough, she launched onto her feet, swiping a leg outward, hoping to knock them off-kilter.
The white-robed Ascian stumbled back a step, scowled.
She rolled her eyes. It was only Elidibus again.
On the last day the Scions house their base in the Waking Sands, Warrior of Light D'fhiri Jinh takes a break from heavy labor to sit atop the roof for a spell. An uneasy acquaintance joins her, forgoing his sinister ways for some quiet company.

Summary
“Themis…” his name tumbled from her lips, “It’s not that…” She was shaking again, eyes squeezed shut. She couldn’t bear to look on his beautiful face and remember him in defeat.
“I do not jest,” he said gravely, “when I call you my guiding star, for that is what you have been from the moment you fell into my life. I know I have not said it. Forgive me for my cowardice. Selfishly, I find myself wishing our time together were not coming to an end. That there might be just one more crisis to keep you here…” She heard him step closer and she could not look away, mesmerized by his intensity. Much like that moment in Pandaemonium when he demanded Hephaistos call him by his name.

“Was there not something else included in the letter though, Fhiri? Some instructions of sorts…and a gift?” G’raha said.
“A small package of saffron actually, wrapped very carefully in bright yellow cloth of a particularly distinct origin,” Fhiri said. “The letter said my next set of instructions would be found where I could purchase both of these items locally.”
