Summary
The lake at the estate’s center is, as ever, where he turns.
It has sheltered him since he arrived on these lands, and now—as he recovers from being kidnapped and drugged—it calls to him. There are no words. There is a line in his chest leading to its depths, a tug like it’s the magnet and he a lodestone.
Before, he has gone to it. Now, it beckons him onward, through the soft grass and onto the sandy shores where he discards the dressing gown. It’s unnecessary. Everything about Benny’s body is meant for waters deeper than this, and perhaps as old; he slips nude into the cool lake and feels it welcome him with a roll of the waves, an undertow drawing him deeper down.
Benny needs no encouragement.

Adela, Volst Gekert Tsu Zayn a Feygele by septemberbells for quandrix_quizard

Summary
Adela, Volst Gekert Tsu Zayn a Fegeleh: Adela, You Could Have Been A Little Bird.
"Ah, welcome," Lilith greeted the angel and demon. "This is Detective Sherlock Holmes and his colleague Dr. John Watson, and Inspector Lestrade. I'm afraid they are investigating something rather upsetting," she continued. "There has been a murder in the neighborhood."
Uriel looked at her, rather suspiciously. After all, it knew that she had helped Grandmother Rivke to be rid of her awful husband, and while it certainly could not disapprove of the death of her rapist and torturer, it rather suspected that a demon who killed once might kill again.

Summary
Saul and Randolph find Wei Wuxian and Lan Zhan poking around at Camlet Moat.
Apparently they're Cultivators, but they won't tell them what a Cultivator actually is. Mr Wei apparently met Randolph's Great Grand Uncle when the man tried to invade China (in another universe, that have been talked about as the Opium Wars). Mr Wei has an unpleasant fondness for mustard.
Saul wishes he hadn't been woken up by the Moat in the wee hours for this conversation.
