Summary
This story picks up a few months after the end of Onyx Storm. Violet and her allies are losing badly to the dark wielders, friends and loved ones already dead, their defenses crumbling. Xaden is gone, consumed by venin power, and despite months of searching, Violet cannot find him or any cure.
Then Andarna returns from her time with the Irids, more mature and aware of her abilities. She re-bonds with Violet. She reveals that Irids have a unique connection to magic, making what they channel flexible, able to be shaped to nearly anything. Together, Andarna, Tairn, and Violet decide their only hope is to bend time itself.
Their plan: send Violet, Xaden, Andarna, Tairn, and Sgaeyl back to the months before the apostasy. Aaric (Cam Tauri) and his dragon Molvic, gifted with foresight, confirm that this path offers a chance at victory with one catch: Duke Fen Riorson must be convinced to organize a rebellion in secret, working from the shadows to avoid Melgren’s battle forsight, rather than declaring open secession and plunging Tyrrendor into war against Navarre. Any course that puts Tyrrendor on a path to direct military conflict with Navarre cannot win.
Or, another Fourth Wing Empyrean time travel au.

Following Emerald Stone: The final installment
Now that they have found several pieces to the puzzle, how are Violet and Co. going to defeat the dark wielders, or will they lose it all?
This comes after Onyx Storm, and after my first installment of 'Emerald Stone'. I'd highly recommend reading that first before continuing here!
As always: these characters are not my own and come from the mind of the incomparable Rebecca Yarros.

We all know the story: Violet Sorrengail studied her whole life to be a scribe. However, six months before, she was to attend the Basgiath War College.

More specifically, the Mabari war hound from the Dragon Age franchise. Meet Keir, a 200-pound, four-foot at the shoulder, all back mabari with golden brown eyes. Faithful to Violet, how will Keir switch up the story? How much chaos can one 200-pound war dog cause in the quadrant?

Summary
When Violet and Xaden find themselves in a rather compromising situation at 35,000 feet, their impulsive mile high lie lands them in London for a wedding week full of fancy events, suspicious relatives, and a story they have to keep straight. But as the line between real and pretend begins to blur, the consequences of their one little lie grow harder to ignore.
AKA : The fic where Xaden and Violet meet on a plane and get caught joining the mile high club. They impulsively claim they just got engaged in an effort to get out of trouble, locking them into living their lie as they head to London for a wedding in a story that celebrates some of our favorite tropes: Fake Relationships, Only One Bed, Forced Proximity and jealous Xaden's Touch Her and Die vibes.

Summary
Vynessa Riorson has never been easy to contain. Wild, sharp-tongued, and reckless enough to keep even her squadmates on edge, she’s as dangerous as she is unpredictable, and she knows it. Basgiath will test her, but chaos has always been her favorite weapon.
Torn from her brother Xaden Riroson's side after their father’s death and thrust into the hands of General Sorren Vex, The Executionor, who shaped her into something sharp and merciless, Vynessa arrives at the war college determined to reclaim her independence and rebuild the bond that was stolen from her.
But freedom is complicated when her assigned protector is her brother’s best friend—the one man she should never want, yet can’t stop pushing, teasing, and flirting with at every turn. Between fractured loyalties, old scars, and a hunger for more than survival, Vynessa must decide if her wildness will keep her untouchable…or finally catch fire.

Summary
Daria barely survived the Battle of Resson, but at a steep price. Not only did she lose Soleil, her foster sister and only surviving family, she lost Liam, her childhood best friend and the person she loved most. Now, all that's left is pain and a festering, ever-growing thirst for revenge. Lost to the forces of her own rage and grief, Daria begins to descend into the darkest depths of her psyche, and in the background, her second year at Basgiath begins. Between RSC, a growing rift between her and Bodhi, the only person left from her close-knit circle of friends, and the resurgence of the Tyrrish Rebellion, Daria is at her limit. Soon, she will be faced with yet another impossible choice, and she will need to decide if her thirst for vengeance outweighs her commitment to the Revolution. And perhaps most importantly, Daria will need to rediscover what matters most to her, and who she wants to be outside of a soldier, a renegade, and wayward soul.

Summary
The last time Mira saw Brennan was two weeks before Conscription Day - before war stole the sky and took him with it. He thought gifting her a book would feel like love. She didn't need pages. She needed her brother.
Now, reeling from the news of his death in Aretia, Mira steps into the Riders Quadrant not with pride, but with purpose. Survival is no longer ambition - it's inheritance. She carries the Sorrengail name like armor and weight, determined to forge herself in the flame every legacy demands.
What she can't resolve through strategy or steel, she releases into ink - letters written to a ghost, confessions never meant for living eyes.
But what if those unsent pages were more than grief?
What if they were meant to bring Brennan back?

Summary
[COMPANION PIECE TO LETTERS SHE NEVER SENT. MUST READ THAT FIC IF YOU WANT THIS TO MAKE SENSE]
We know how Mira is forced to deal with balancing the loss of Brennan and the trials Basgiath places upon her. We know how survival in the Riders Quadrant ultimately fueled her ambition. We know how her relationships with others are affected. What we don't know, is the story of everyone else's tales from the main plot.
What about them? How do they feel witnessing the things they did? What were their thoughts? Their feelings? Their motives?
In this compendium of perspectives, each from a different character we have grown to love, we find the truth. Here, we learn of the stories that never coincided with Mira's journey, but were still vital to their growth. We learn of the real reason why Brennan abandoned his sisters, how Lilith felt about her children, how the rebellion managed to stay hidden until Violet Sorrengail discovered the truth.
These tales were never meant to be seen by living eyes, but they were wrong. The truth deserves to be shared. They deserve to be seen.
Join us in reading the Words We Never Said.

Summary
Life on the streets wasn't as glamourous as I once thought, but I made it work. I learnt to survive. I learnt to live. When he offered me a hand, cloaked in shelter and promises and sanctuary, I should have known that he had his own agendas at play. He never treated me like a son - merely a pawn in his games.
Well I refuse to be a pawn in his games no longer. It's time I make my own way in life - and if that means stripping myself of the persona he carefully built of me for all these years then so be it. If he considers Riorson as more of a son that I ever was to him, then he has another thing coming.

I once loved him. Once, we were inseparable. Once, we were the ones we entrusted each other with our everything. It never last long, though. Time changes, and the world grows colder - and with it, his distance towards me. I never expected him to turn to me for help.
And when he needed me most, I let him rot. I let him suffer. I let him die. My own brother, killed by my hand. Why did I do it? Pride? Loyalty? Mercy? Hatred? Loss? Love? I guess I'll never know. I never meant to hurt you, but you did this to yourself. You have only yourself to blame.
