Summary
The Kryn Dynasty and the Cerberus Assembly both suspect there is information in the ruins of Aeor that could cause civil war among the dens. The Dynasty would like to make it disappear. The Assembly wants nothing more than to get their hands on it.
Vurmus Outpost researchers are slowly disappearing, and Essek Thelyss is not believed as dead as he would like.
He's already sacrificed everything else—all that's left to save his own skin is to shed it.
(Essek uses the Transmogrification spell to disappear, and finds a tentative home in hiding as the long lost son of the Ruby of the Sea.)

Summary
“So, how was it?” Jester asked eagerly.
“Was he an asshole?” Beau leaned against the wall.
“Should we kill him?” Veth asked, half serious, half not.
“He is,” Caleb paused, trying to collect his thoughts while he chewed a piece of bread. “Well, he is brilliant.” That much was evident right away. It was just as clear that Eseek was downright attractive, in a way that had simultaneously made it hard to look at him and to look away. Caleb swallowed and decided that wasn’t worth mentioning.

"'Oh? And why do you want to braid my hair all of a sudden, Jester?' Essek asks, turning around from the now mostly diced onion that is on the cutting board to face the blue tiefling, whose smile was practically beaming at the fact her question was able to get his attention. 'Well, because everyone in the Mighty Nein has a braid in their hair Essek! It's like, totally a tradition!'"

Summary
Essek is warm with a heat that starts in his sternum and radiates throughout his whole body. He wants to pull Caleb closer, closer, tuck him into his chest, and share that warmth with him.
There is a name for this, he thinks. Surely, it must have a name.
“It is all-encompassing,” he says instead. “But it is not that.”
