Summary
For Kanaya Maryam, her childhood in the busy brooding caverns is the only life she's ever known.
Being only five sweeps old, she is nowhere near important enough yet to wash the Mother Grub's floorboards, or carry the filial pails—or even touch a grub, for that matter. But the universe has its eyes set on her, and its plans will surely change the course of her life forever.

Summary
"I am empty 'til she fills, alive until she kills." - Vampire Empire, Big Thief
Six out of twelve dead, two out of the remaining six better dead than alive. Two out of the six on a rebel ship with a map pointing to nowhere, and the last two still trapped on Alternia, with no possibility of getting out unless any of the remaining Four came to get them.
Such was the situation that had pushed Kanaya Maryam and Terezi Pyrope together, in a pitch affair that was as brutal as it felt brilliant.

Summary
"When I was much younger, there was another jade I knew... She was a lot like Daraya. Even the best of us waver in our faith at times, but she truly hated her calling. She wanted nothing to do with tending to the Mother Grub. And it was all because of that stupid book."
Rianha Lochsi hates her job. She's good at getting herself(and others, on occasion) out of it, but the fact remains that she's stuck working it, probably for the rest of her life.
This is not her story. This is her end, and what comes after. Alternia doesn't give you happy endings.
