Summary
Set one year before the events of Fourth Wing, this is the first person perspective of a character ascending the Parapet at Basgiath with the intent of ending their life. If this story doesn't hurt you, I've failed.
Kane is an OC of unknown origin and traumatic past. The story follows his unwilling participation in the Riders Quadrant during an ordinary year at Basgiath. Though untrained, his life will continually be prolonged by music, luck, relationships, and shreds of hope. The longer he survives, the more he thrashes against the dissonance between his past and his developing worldview. Through his perspective we also follow his team, a deep and tight-knit aspiring Iron Squad; though we all know at least half of every squad inevitably fail the trials of Basgiath.
I've done my best to respect the canon of the Empyrean books wherever possible, and have 'fixed' some plot inconsistences/open questions. Some contrivances were invented to fit the narrative.

Summary
Violet Sorrengail is my cousin's fiance.
Violet Sorrengail is infuriatingly maddening. Stubborn. Hot-headed. A know-it-all. Loud-mouthed with opinions on every little damn thing.
Violet Sorrengail is… naked in my bedroom. Begging to be fucked.

Summary
A millennia after the Deunification of Navarre, the war that splintered the Continent is little more than a dusty, half-forgotten memory. Magic is fading; dragons are few and far between; and Violet's problems are decidedly first-world. While the dragon riders of old worried about death lurking around every corner, her biggest worry is whether she'll get into the masters program of her choice. So when an infuriating, handsome man steals her spot at a coffee shop while she's in the bathroom, she doesn't expect that the meeting is far more than mere coincidence.
But Xaden's and Violet's feud over the best spot at the coffee shop evolves into something deeper, and as the years pass, Violet's dreams begin showing her terrifying scenes of war and loss that she struggles to forget about when she awakens, and the dreams feel more and more familiar with every passing night.
