    Summary

    Verna breathed out. She could deal with some prophetic dreams, or with godly disappointment, or whatever... but she remembered that desolate, hopeless wailing, stretching long beyond the capacity of any living throat.

    "Learned," she said. "Why me?"

    He spread his hands. "Sera dy Marray, I'm not trying to make light of your burden. But why not you?"

    Summary

    "Taicho… weird chakra warning?" Bat says.

    Hawk tries not to sigh. "On a scale of… Land of Snow to Land of Mist, how weird?"

    "That's not really a scale, taicho," she says reproachingly, "and even if it were, I think we'd disagree over which is more severe. But probably more like Land of Snow? Maybe… avoid using earth flow? And if anyone finds any strange seals, intricate carvings or weird rocks… well. Don't touch it?"

    "You heard her," Hawk says. "Let's find Mukade and get out of Roran before anything goes wrong."

    Summary

    “Mu-shidi,” Yue Qingyuan speaks up, taking his seat at the head of the table. “Have you heard of this curse?”

    “I’m afraid not,” Mu Qingfang says, shaking his head. “A curse of compulsion, with dire consequences for disobedience… I’ve heard of many similar things, but not exactly this.”

    “For all we know, the perpetrator invented this little trap just for us,” Shen Qinqiu says, tapping his fan dangerously. “Tailormade to ruin us.”

    “I have no secrets to hide,” Liu Qingge says, and lifts his chin challengingly at Shen Qingqiu, who bristles in return. “Do you?”

    “Ah, Liu-shidi, if you don’t have any secrets then you should get some real quick!” Shang Qinghua says with bright, manic cheer, his smile and his eyes a little too wide. “The consequences for not meeting the curse’s requirements would be very very bad!”

    -

    The Peak Lords of Cang Qiong Mountain Sect are stricken with a curse that forces them to reveal a secret, and they all must submit to this curse or suffer the consequences...

    Yue Qingyuan wishes he were anywhere but here.

    Summary

    Summary

    Shen Qingqiu has a bare moment of dismayed comprehension before Luo Binghe is moving again, releasing his hold on Xiu Ya only so that he can swirl around Shen Qingqiu in a blindingly fast movement, getting behind Shen Qingqiu and using his now-free right arm to pin Shen Qingqiu against him, Shen Qingqiu’s back to his chest.

    “Caught you, Shizun,” Luo Binghe says in Shen Qingqiu’s ear, and then he tips them backward through the portal.

    Two years after the Immortal Alliance Conference, Luo Binghe reappears in the Human Realm—directly on Qing Jing Peak, in order to kidnap Shen Qingqiu to the Demon Realm. Little does Shen Qingqiu know, this isn’t the right Luo Binghe.

    The Original Luo Binghe has finally, after years of searching, found a kind Shizun of his own to kidnap and keep in his own universe—and this time, no one is going to take Shizun from him.

    Summary

    “Gandalf is going to turn me into a weasel,” Pippin told Boromir. “I shall need a pocket to ride in. May I borrow yours?”

    Boromir blinked. “Oh,” he said. “Ohh. Yes, certainly, so long as you are a weasel-sized weasel and not a hobbit-sized weasel.”

    Pippin turned to Gandalf, caught by this new idea. “Can you make me into a hobbit-sized weasel?”

    “For mercy's sake,” said Gandalf.

    In which Pippin has approximately sixty uninterrupted leagues to find out everything that can be found out from Gandalf and gets approximately sixty times more than he bargained for.

    Summary

    A key lesson of the First Age was: Do NOT, under any circumstances, let a bunch of grief-enraged Noldor onto your continent, particularly not led by the House of Fëanor.

    The Númenorean Empire has failed to learn from history.

    (Also the Noldor, particularly the House of Fëanor, have acquired a notable Maia who is...mostly no longer evil. Officially speaking.)
