    Summary

    The mystery comes to its conclusion before the Verax Leo in Marmoreal Market. Phainon is not, unlike some of his colleagues, in the habit of damaging the city’s statuary. But if striking with Dawnmaker will satisfy his curiosity, he is willing to risk Aglaea’s displeasure.
    “My lord,” Verax Leo finally grumbles. “It concerns Kremnoan royalty.”
    Phainon’s expression sharpens. “...Has something happened to Mydeimos?”
    “No, Lord Phainon. Nothing like that,” The lion hesitates. “It’s... the princess.”

    Phainon comes to learn that Okhema is obsessed with a drag queen named "Princess of Castrum Kremnos," an extravagantly dressed performer who spends her weekends reducing audiences to laughter with a parody of the real Crown Prince. The crowd thinks it is the ultimate comedy act, happily joking that the princess and prince have never been seen in the same room.

    There is no such parody. Okhema thinks it sees a brilliant satire. Phainon thinks a mysterious performer has stolen the privilege of making fun of his rival. And Mydei is just trying to make sure no one notices that the prince and the princess share the exact same biceps.

    Summary

    Every eighty years, the people of Aedes Elysiae sacrifice a young woman to the ancient being which haunts their forest-bound village. It is the only way to protect everything they hold dear, to keep the shadows that once ate the rest of the world from eating them too.

    After centuries of this uneasy peace, it appears the creature's tastes in food have changed.

    Now it is Phainon who will be given to the one too terrible to name.

    Summary

    "Tell me this isn't about the prophecy," Mydei demands. "Tell me you're not sleeping with half of Okhema just to forget you're the fucking Deliverer."

    Phainon's mouth opens, but no sound comes out. The truth claws up his chest but won't come out: the fact that he needs this, needs to be reduced to something simpler than a title, something smaller than destiny.

    Mydei's eyes narrow, and Phainon realizes that he already knows.

    Of course he does. He's Mydei.

    "It is," Phainon admits at last, voice cracking. “I am.”

    Mydei rolls his hips down, his cock dragging alongside Phainon's. The answering groan that spills from Phainon’s throat is nothing like the practiced moans he gives strangers.

    "Then you ask me," Mydei growls. "From now on, when you need to forget, you come to me. Not some godsforsaken brothel."

    Summary

    Nevertheless, if anyone in Amphoreus ever did find themselves on the receiving end of Phainon’s actual wrath, and unless they shared Mydei’s gift of immortality, they probably wouldn’t live to see the next Entry Hour. Probably wouldn't want to either.

    Honestly, Mydei wanted to test that theory.

    Pushing Phainon's buttons becomes one of Mydei's favourite pastimes.
