    Summary

    For historical accuracy, the coup d’état was Suki and Hakoda’s idea, not Zuko’s.

    Or: in which Zuko doesn’t escape the palace after the eclipse. After a few days, Ozai decides to send him to the Boiling Rock.

    It doesn’t take Suki and Hakoda long to reach a conclusion: why limit themselves to escaping the Boiling Rock when they could stage a coup in the Fire Nation as well?

    Summary

    Finally, the girl stopped sobbing for long enough to speak: "My father made a bet with the Ghost King and lost. Now I have to marry Hua Chengzhu!"

    "I will take your place." Xie Lian winced as soon as the words left his mouth.

    ***

    The regulars at the Gambler's Den are used to seeing men try to marry their daughters off to Hua Chengzhu. No one expects him to one day agree.

    Summary

    Days pass as Hua Cheng combs the kingdom night and day and all the while he hears his highness’s voice in his ears, so much more frequent now than it's ever been before, but that's not what worries Hua Cheng the most, no that honor goes to the new change in it. Before, even if he did not like to hear it, he at least recognized the bidder self mocking note in Xie Lian’s voice. Now though… Now his god's words have taken on a dreamy muzzy quality Hua Cheng has never heard from him before, as though Xie Lian’s mind is slipping a little with pain or fever or some other ailment, as though he believes that Wu Ming is really there.

    “Wu Ming… Where are you? I can't see you…”

    “Wu Ming, what do you think of all this? Of me?”

    “You regret choosing to worship me now, don’t you, Wu Ming?”

    “Wu Ming… Wu Ming I'm sorry. I know it's been so long. There's so much I haven't told you. Five whole years… I don't think I told you anything about Qianqiu. He's got a good heart, you know. I've always been proud of him. I hope I didn't break him like I do everyone else. … Like I broke you.”

    OR From inside the coffin Xie Lian talks to Wu Ming and his words become prayers which Hua Cheng can hear.
