Summary
The Azure Dragoon’s prior encounter with the sacred mountain of Sohm Al had also been at The Warrior of Light's side. Along with Lady Ysayle and the little lord Alphinaud, they had trekked into a Dravanian territory fraught with violent vegetation and battalions of angry drakes, biasts, and whelps. Even with their eclectic party’s combined strengths and arcane talents, they had only just narrowly escaped the jaws of Nidhogg’s chosen consort.
Malms of a most harrowing journey—but about two steps into his half of the Sohm Al tart’s recipe, Estinien decides he would very much rather be surmounting the actual mountain again.
Reuniting at last after the fallout from the Final Days, an Exhausted Estinien and Weary Warrior of Light join forces to comfort an overworked Lord Commander with one of his favorite comfort foods.

Summary
One moment, they’re dancing around each other, the clash of steel echoing across the Steppe. Gosetsu’s heart is singing, to see his master not only alive, but well, thriving. The next, something shifts between them - imperceptible, but sudden, all at once.
Flat on his back and the air knocked from his lungs, he can feel Hien’s heartbeat racing against his own.

Summary
At the end of the universe, bleeding and broken and quite certain neither of them are going to make it back alive, Meteor decides that it just doesn't seem fair that Zenos should die alone. So he drags himself to Zenos' side and collapses on top of his chest. One small comfort in what Meteor assumes to be their final moments. At least, until he wakes up in Old Sharlayan some time later to find that he was not the only one who made it home.

Summary
“...for the child.” He clarifies, and Estinien is yanked back to reality with startling force.
Yes, the child. Hard to forget that. Even if the holy see hardly cared if he did- The decree was for soldiers after the calamity, not sons.
