Requiem Shard

“Tell me it was a moment of cowardice, not a lack of reaction time,” said Aemilia. The late Cornelia believed in order. Although Drusus saw each of his patients as equals, Cornelia was disturbed by her husband’s willingness to administer the medications she had developed to civilians just the same a...

Allopathy is really neat, and automatic emotes attached to each treatment step can help demonstrate the work necessary to tend injuries, but I’d like to suggest that each treatment step be limited to one automatic emote. Each treatment step’s emote is automatically repeated several times, which spam...

They were called the Ashwalkers, the blonde told the doctor. Repeated visits to their lair, as she called it, revealed that the Ashwalkers only showed unyielding hostility. The doctor asked why they should not be allowed the isolation they so clearly wanted. The blonde was electric. She was unapolog...

There was nowhere to hide, so they dug holes into the sand and took cover in what the soldiers called foxholes. Aemilia didn’t know what a fox was at the time and wouldn’t see her first one until she first stepped foot in the First Province almost two decades later. She kept quiet in the foxhole bac...

With bare feet, the blonde led Aemilia through the laboratory and spoke of her work. She had arrived in the First Province a couple seasons ago, she had shared.

Aemilia needed resources to further her research, but she couldn’t afford them. Malik was supportive in his way, always with kindness granted at arm’s length....

Aemilia clutched at the scorched rubble remains, and a mostly withered away oak post crumbled to ash in her palms. Her chest swelled with every deep breath she took. The air was damp and heavy from the mixing scents of burnt wood and rain water. Life had never smelled fresher. The bruises on her fac...

The darkness of his robe made the pieces of him disappear into an amorphous void. When he first appeared in front of her, she thought he’d come to shake the last copper coins from her pockets. He wouldn’t have been doing it for the need of coin, but maybe for the thrill of it. He was wealthy, and sh...

Fort Praesidium had made her restless, but Kaelius’s Rest created a sense of ease. The wooden walls wouldn’t keep out the Afflicted when they would inevitably arrive, and there were so many flowers that the floral scent hung heavily in the air, but it was the company that made it feel right. She sat...
