    Summary

    Set during Endwalker, pre-Tower of Babil, spoilers through Garlemald. Sadu/Cirina established relationship.

    Eorzeans were not Steppe people. They had not the sense. They followed different customs, strutting about as if they followed a standard of nobility above all others, innocent of the same acts they accused their enemies of. But Sadu watched regardless, holding her tongue as she observed their speeches, and marked well the grain of the khagan's allies.

    So it was Broken Glass now, in the Eorzean way, and Sadu kept her thoughts to herself.

    And to one other.

    Summary

    A conversation about homosexuals takes an unexpected turn when Kissinger alludes to Nixon's personal familiarity with them.

    [The events of this story are 100% accurate and true, as recounted to me in a Zoom call by the late Henry A. Kissinger before he died.]

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Sometimes you want to read about two people having a bad time together. This absolutely scratches that itch. A really compelling exploration of trauma.

    Summary

    Deep in the belly of a long-abandoned Halonic temple, Thancred braces himself for the inevitability of torture.

    It would be easier to stomach if he was the only one under threat.
