    Summary

    He had learned, later—not been told in as many words because the taná listens to more than words—that Eritanyr had asked for Uncle Lazo. More boy than man then but known as a rising taná. The priest-wizards had come West and demanded him, and Tovo had gone with them, refused to accept anything less because the taná always takes care of their people and his Buru had long been tana-tai.

    (The priest-wizards ask for Gaudy, for precious newborn Gaudy, to raise into the image of an Emperor’s concubine. Like the tana-tai before him, Cliopher goes in his nephew’s stead.)

    Cliopher's efela ko snaps during his journey home after the Fall, and he very quickly comes to the attention of a number of gods. Now, if only his friends would stop acting so unexplainably strange...

    Summary

    At least there wasn’t an audience for the look Ludvic turned on Kip and the too neutral way he said, “Tor?”

    Kip could feel himself flushing - in Astandalas this was the kind of thing that had lost him jobs before - but he had the excuse of, first of all, amnesia, and second of all, “He didn’t give me any other name!” Kip hissed. “He deflected me off the topic twice!”

    -

    AU where the landslide at the Liauu happens several years earlier, and the younger Kip has a rather different experience of the future.

    Summary

    “Kip, there you are, thank goodness — oh, you really needn’t bother, it’s so tiresome, isn’t it —” as his Radiancy’s hand moved in that habitual gesture to tell Cliopher to stand — “and I’ve begun already, I suppose going an entire thirty seconds without blurting out something I didn’t wish to would be too long to ask, wouldn’t it, not this spell’s style.” Cliopher rose and stared at his Radiancy, who had returned to pacing, faster than his usual habit, feet moving as quickly as his mouth, which had not yet stopped speaking. “And I must say, well, am compelled to say, I suppose, that I feel terrifically stupid for falling prey to any kind of hostile spell at all — I suppose it could be a poison but that seems unlikely when I know Ludvic and Rhodin have procedures for checking my food, and even if I do feel very foolish for missing something in my own area of expertise I suppose it’s better to feel foolish than to have Ludvic or Rhodin or both come to prostrate themselves to me with their deepest apologies, it always frightens me when they do that —”

    His Radiancy encounters a truth serum.
