    Summary

    "Wherever you go now, I go. You have two shadows for now, because wherever you walk, one day your family will return, and I’ll be waiting."

    Julien swore to follow Occtis Tachonis wherever he went, and Julien Davinos never does anything by halves.

    -

    Occtis goes down in a fight and Julien follows him into the space between life and death to reclaim his soul.

    Summary

    A few weeks earlier, House Tachonis had been wiped from Aramán in a single night, and every last member of the deranged bloodline had been butchered.

    No one knew who—or what—had been powerful enough to commit such a slaughter. Some claimed the family had finally lost control of the undead army they had been secretly raising and that their own creations had turned upon their masters.

    Others, bolder, speaking in hushed tones and only after making certain they could not be overheard, whispered of an estranged son returning to exact his vengeance.

    But those stories were invariably met with scorn, since the idea that the only Tachonis born without sorcerous talent could have annihilated his entire family was laughable.

    Summary

    Thimble uncovers a secret of Julien’s, and has reason to regret it.

    “I think I need to check on what Julien’s up to,” Thimble told Occtis. “We shouldn’t be separating like this.”

    “He’ll be upset if he catches you,” Occtis said.

    “So I won’t let him catch me,” she replied, and darted away.

    It was a brothel. Of course it was a fucking brothel. She shouldn’t be surprised.

    Except that Julien had seemed different since he’d come back from the Eternal Night. More serious about his duties and less… everything that he’d been for so many years.

    She should just turn back, now that she knew what he was doing.

    But Julien left the brothel not long after arriving, certainly too quickly to have accomplished anything of note, and was striding off in a different direction. Not back towards King Gus.

    Well, she’d already come this far.

    Summary

    A frustrating experience during a battle causes Julien and Occtis to reassess the argument that they had outside Obrimus Manor.

    “What the fuck was that?” Julien’s voice was loud and clear and, most of all, more furious than Occtis had ever heard it before.

    He grimaced slightly, but he wasn’t the one being yelled at, not this time, so he decided to take a few steps away from the group to begin the process of re-summoning Pin, who’d been destroyed in the battle.

    “What was what?” Thimble asked, and she sounded genuinely confused. Human-sized again, and Occtis had almost gotten used to that. “Kattigan saved your life back there. Why are you so angry about it?”

    It was an odd little reminder that Thimble hadn’t been along during Occtis’s trip with Julien to the old empire. She didn’t know Julien, not really. She knew some version of him that he’d been before his father had been murdered, but she didn’t know him now.

    “I didn’t need any help,” Julien said, and Occtis could see him glaring around at the others. “I was fine.”

    Summary

    Opportunities a certain pair of rivals could have used to ragebait or troll the hell out of Hell, a mini-series of humor, drama and surprise-plot that snuck up on me as much as it would you.
