Summary
Ever since you were very little, Dad has told you stories. Stories of heroism, of adventure and friendship and love. Stories of the Mighty Nein.
You know they’re not real, because only you and Dad are real. It’s you, and Dad, in Room, and that’s all there is.(It starts like this: Essek Thelyss meets Ludinus Da’leth when he is 81 years old, desperately lonely, and convinced down to his core that he is too clever to be taken advantage of.)
(It starts like this: Ludinus Da’leth has never truly let go of anything.)

Summary
relativity, noun. 1) In physics: the degree to which a phenomenon’s perception differs between observers based on their independent reference frames; 2) In philosophy: the belief that there is no absolute morality existing beyond the conditioning of the individual.
The return to Aeor is a crucible of sorts- all that they have this time is each other, which is both electrifying and terrible in near-equal quantities. Two wizards in one place is trouble, but when they're Caleb and Essek it's a match to acetylene.
(Or: how it falls apart and comes back together.)

Summary
The second time the Nein come to Vurmas, it isn't as friends. Essek seeks refuge with the one person they (hopefully) won't approach.
That is how it happened. Definitely.

And now, five days after his parents' death, and one day after his coming-of-age, and one day before his parents' funeral, Prince Scott must be crowned king, with no training and barely any preparation.
He's so young. The prince really is just a boy.

Or, five times that Ilphas saw Scott as a boy, and one time they saw him as far older than he is.Series

Summary
Murray is a diviner. She knows how to tell when a recurring nightmare is a regular-ass dream, when it’s a portent, and when it’s a full-on clairvoyant vision of the future. And the distressingly gory one she’s been having for the past three weeks now is undeniably—as much as she’d like to deny it—the latter of the three.

Summary
He leans in and kisses Zerxus again, standing on his toes and leaning against the taller man. Zerxus moves his arms, wrapping them around Evandrin’s body. The scent of flowers is sweet in the air. Tonight, the clouds hang low, about level with Avalir. The stars are clear above them, and Zerxus is wrapped tightly in the embrace of someone he just met.
Evandrin leans in and kisses him again, long and sweet. The stars are shining above them, and they hold each other and kiss until the pink of dawn approaches.Bookmarked by mx_mythical

The Herald and the Architect: A Pre-Calamity Correspondence, with commentary by E. Widogast by sansrecourse
Fandoms: Critical Role (Web Series)
16 Jul 2022

Summary
To whom it may concern,
This letter is to verify that the attached correspondence, documents, and various memorabilia once belonged to a mage named Laerryn Coramar-Seelie, Architect Arcane of Avalir. These were found in a box sealed by arcane means and date back to the pre-Calamity era. My deceased husband, Professor Caleb Widogast of the Soltryce Academy, unearthed the box during an exploration trip to Aeor in 837 PD. Through our research, we have found these to be authentic.
I am at your service for any other information you may require.
Regards,
E. Widogast[A transcription with commentary on various mementos and letters belonging to one Laerryn Coramar-Seelie, found in a carved box (bronze and gold inlaid with amethysts, 14 inches high x 18 inches long x 16 inches wide). Originally discovered in the ruins of Aeor in 837 PD by C. Widogast and E. Widogast. Acquired by the Cobalt Soul. ]

Summary
But no, she was here at Caleb’s shitty table, across from Essek, who’s boring holes into the rough-hewn wood with downcast eyes. The thing about Essek, she muses, was that he felt that he was so indebted to the Nein that he was willing to do almost anything to avoid being an inconvenience. Which might, she thinks, be sort of toxic.

Summary
“Ah, dove,” said the umavi, using the Old Drow word for dove that also meant dear, also meant, less flatteringly, game pigeon. As a child, Essek had found the very existence of a word for a surface bird in Old Drow amusing, perplexing, until Deirta had informed him that in her youth the high houses had reared doves by hand in the Underdark, and fed them to their matriarchs. “What is to be done about you?”
-Essek has always been hungry. It is fitting then, that hungry is how he will die.

Summary
Whatever it was Beau and Yasha had together, it's over now, and Beau moved on from that "heartbreak" crap months ago. Really. Even if she's painfully, chronically single, spends way too much time now at work, and kind of still has Yasha listed as her emergency contact. (That doesn't mean a damn thing, okay? Shut up, Nott.)
Then Beau nearly gets herself killed in a traffic accident, and wakes to find the ex-almost-girlfriend she hasn't spoken to in a year waiting at her bedside. Feelings bubble to the surface and threaten to drown them. Old wounds are reopened, harsh and gaping.
Yasha stays.

Summary
"Hey," she says weakly. "Did we win?"
"They're all dead," Yasha assures her, still too distracted by the unnatural twist of Beau's right arm, the labored sound of her breathing. Yasha is no cleric—she may have managed to yank Beau back from the brink of death, but she can't fix her. She needs to get her back to people who can.
Good thing they're stranded alone in the middle of fucking nowhere. Nothing but trees and knotty, gnarled paths for miles in every direction. Yasha glares up at the grey-orange sky, like her anger alone can stop the sun from setting, the earth from turning, the girl she (
loveslikeswants) cares for from dying in her arms.Series
