The Signet of His Lords (new fic) + notes
There are a hundred lessons the queen wants to teach her son before he leaves her.
Pre-game, Almyra. ~3k words.
(aka I wrote some self-indulgent pregame fic with Claude and his mom, come join the ride)
Here at AO3.
* i know a guy who accidentally smuggled a bunch of precious gems to the US in the 70s. he was ten; his mom put him on a plane and said "it will be VERY COLD in the US so you must be VERY SURE not to take off that jacket." he lands in the US, his aunt picks him up, and the first thing she does is cut open the jacket and pull all the gems out of the lining.
this guy is a very straight-laced gentleman who would never have knowingly smuggled gems and he's very salty if you ever bring this story up
anyway that's where i got the idea for that bit of the story :P
* title came from Daniel 6:17, because apparently i'll never be able to unmemorize all this fuckin Bible shit i learned in my misspent Baptist youth
