Summary
I still dont like it, but…" Zevlor trailed off, placing her bags into the room furthest from the stairs. She followed, grasping his gauntleted hand. "Thank you," she insisted, treasuring the way the wrinkle between his brows eased for a moment.
It returned with a heavy sigh from his lips. "Gods above, don't thank me. This place is barely passable for a regular traveler, much less your—" she watched him nearly bite through his tongue to keep her title from his lips.

Summary
Illario Dellamorte has been sent to clear out a nest of Venatori still holed up in the depths of the Grand Necropolis.
Illario can escape the public eye, prove his allegiance, and give the Crows time to find a new scandal. Everyone wins.
Except for him, of course.
At least his guide into the tombs isn’t too hard to look at.

Summary
Around Rook, he was not an abomination. He was not a Crow, not an Assassin, not the Demon of Vyrantium, and not the grandson of the First Talon.
He was Lucanis. And he was just a man.
A man who was afraid his feelings were a burden.

Summary
“How’s your acting?” Violeta gripped his collar and pulled him close, backing up to the trellis. “Because I need you to kiss me.“
“What?” Viago hissed, every muscle in his body tensing as she gathered her skirts, hiking her mostly bare leg around his hips. She figured it was good enough to make someone unsure whether his pants were buttoned or not.
“Come on, keep up. If they think we just snuck out-“ her foot wobbled unsteadily in her heel and she cursed as her ankle threatened to twist.

“Crowds tend to be overwhelming,” she agreed, staring over his shoulder for a moment before refocusing on him. “You are a leader to these people. How do you find balance between what needs to be done and what you fear doing?”
Zevlor allowed himself a small chuckle. “If you ever find the answer, be sure to let me know.”

Summary
This is a collection of wintry oneshots set in Sandrock! Most are winter-themed in a general sense as opposed to focused on holidays themselves, but I had to go for that alliterative title. 😉
-----
UPDATE! December 31, 2025: Happy New Year, Sandrockers! 🎉 I wrote a new Winter Solstice/New Year's spin on the aftermath of an intensified version of Cornered Beasts. It's fluffy with hurt/comfort and confessions of feelings and Logan being Logan (he will not stay on bed rest if Lucy's in trouble) and all of that good stuff.
I'm adding it as a new chapter in this collection since it fits the theme. If you're new to High Desert Holidays, nearly all of the chapters are oneshots! You won't need to read them all to read this one, though I certainly wouldn't complain if you did. 😉

Summary
“Did that flower spit at us?”
“Well, in a manner, although,” Emmrich blinked a few times. His face was spattered with pollen of the same vibrant color of the center of the flowers, the purple-red spots of pollen bright against his pale skin. “Flowers are technically the sexual organs of a plant.”
“So it just…“ Rook tried not to laugh. “Dinner first would have been nice.”

Summary
When the confrontation at Blackthorne Manor goes wrong, Rook ends up captured by the villainous Johanna Hezenkoss, a master of both the necromantic arts and grudge-keeping.
Rook always knew that Hezenkoss was a piece of work. What she didn't realize was the lengths the failed lich would go to in order to get back at Emmrich Volkarin…

Summary
“Of course I know,” she beamed, wrapping her arms around his midsection and burying her face in his shirt coyly, feeling herself frown slightly when she felt him inexplicably flinch. “It’s nice to know you’re watching out for me, Emmrich. If I didn’t have you, I don’t kn–”
Her words halted abruptly when the realization hit her that her lower abdomen was resting on Emmrich’s lap, and either he had a sizable vial of alchemy ingredients in his pocket or…
No plot here, just Emmrich getting excited at an awkward moment and Rook deciding to take care of it for him with unintended results.
