    Summary

    In fairness, there was precious little Phainon was truly able to think about when he had his knees pushed up to his ears, thighs straining from him effectively being folded in half, legs unable to find purchase and his fingers rending stalks of wheat from the earth.

    He could barely breathe—but whether that was owed to the position he was in, or for the fact that he'd simply forgotten how, remained uncertain. Sharp, loud gasps escaped him as tears bled down his cheeks and his lips parted on each choked sound.

    Carrying the eggs of a vidyadhara to term was not on Phainon's bucket list.

    Summary

    “Lord Phainon…” Hyacine starts, “have you been pushing your body to look like your old self?” Her voice breaks with her words.

    The betrayal felt is clear as day. Phainon has no choice but to keep his head down in ashamed silence. Here he was, bearing the visage of the Chrysos Heirs' executioner, and staring at the ground like a kicked dog.

    Mydei groans, leaning back in his chair with a huff. “A whole year of that, and look where it got you. I guess this is your version of falling ill.”

    With one final sniffle, Hyacine composes herself, ever the doctor. “Alright. Rest here until you can change back. I won’t ask you to walk home like this. But, doctor’s orders: from now on, when you’re home, you must allow your body to breathe properly!”

    What else could Phainon do but nod?

    Within The Eternal Page, a year has passed since the battle with Irontomb. The retired life is going well enough for Phainon, spending his days happily idling away.

    That is, until his body suddenly bursts into flames, shining light on his most deeply hidden secrets.

    Summary

    During one of their usual spars, Phainon feels something strange happening to his body after one of Mydei's attacks. Althought bruises and marks from battles are nothing new, this mark was something new for the both of them.

    Summary

    "At least one of us enjoys my being kicked at all hours," Phainon sighs fondly, petting his lover's hair.

    Smile wide across his face, Mydei hums, tiny blows of unborn offspring fierce against splayed palm.  Every movement fills him with just as much wonder and amazement as the first he'd felt months ago. "They've inherited your spirit, that's for certain."

    "And your brute strength," Phainon winces as another expertly aimed strike pummels sore and tender ribs.

    Summary

    Things were supposed to be easy, now that Irontomb was gone. Safe.

    Everything they fought for, the peace they worked so hard to achieve, it was finally real.

    So, why-

    “Congratulations, Lord Phainon. You’re pregnant!”

    Why did he feel like dying all over again?

    or

    Phainon has been pregnant before in some of the cycles. And he remembers it. Needless to say, he doesn’t take the news very well.
