Summary
The circus is made up of secrets, known only to a select few. Tylendel himself knows more of them than most.
He runs his thumb along the base of his ring finger. Nothing, not even a scar, betrays the band of binding magic that’s sunk there into his skin. He can feel it if he tries, the loop of it cinched around his very soul. His life is bound into a contest, a game; tied to the circus and to his opponent, whose identity he doesn’t even know.

Summary
When, after over a decade of cautious negotiation, Leareth finally chose to reveal his full plan, Vanyel thought he would have the answers he needed to make a decision. Instead, his life is falling apart around him. Yfandes is missing, and fifteen years’ worth of secrets are about to come out in the messiest possible way.
For the rest of the Heraldic Circle, this is a revelation that will shake the foundations of everything they believe. Was Vanyel ever the person they thought? Savil isn’t sure. All she knows is that she made a promise to her nephew that she wouldn’t let him face his future alone.
Jisa doesn't know anything – just that her parents are upset, and something is terribly wrong. Fortunately, Stef is happy to take an opportunity to comfort the King's daughter, and maybe even find a scheme that will solve her problems.

Lead me into shadows once again by Swimmer963

Summary
[This is part 5 of a series. Start at the beginning!]
Valdemar is gaining ground in the war against the Karsites, and for the first time in years, Vanyel, Savil, and Lissa are on leave. Sort of. The Ashkevron family manor isn't exactly a restful place, even leaving aside the rumblings on their border. At least Herald-Spies Mardic and Donni are keeping an eye on the nearest danger spot, the capital of neighbouring kingdom Lineas.
Meanwhile, a Karsite princess in exile rides towards Haven, hoping to negotiate with King Randale for an alliance. And on the streets of a border town, an orphaned child sings for his supper, with no idea of how much his life is about to change.
Covers roughly the timeline of Magic's Promise, with some bonus sideplots.

Queen Elspeth is dead, and Valdemar has a new King, and a new war. Herald-Mage Vanyel finds himself sent to the Karsite border, fighting for the survival of his kingdom – a war that will push him to his absolute limits.

After the death of his lifebonded lover, the last thing Vanyel wants is to be a Herald, much less the most powerful mage in Valdemaran history. But Companions never Choose wrong. A destiny he never asked for, and the tireless efforts of his friends to help, are all that he has left.

Summary
Herald Esmelle has uncovered disturbing news while on circuit. Rethwellan is encroaching on Valdemaran lands. Back in Haven, it's only a matter of time before she's sent out to deal with the problem on the border—up the mountains in the middle of winter! And, unfortunately for Esmelle, she's getting partnered up with a Herald-Mage holding a grudge against her: Herald-Mage Savil Ashkevron. And that's not to mention Savil's complete lack of skill at negotiating.
