Summary
Avad had always been a dreamer. Even when the terrible events of his life proved time and time again that foolish fantasies couldn’t come true, it didn’t stop him from imagining a life that was different than the one he had — a life that was a little less… constrained.
It wasn’t until Aloy flew to him on a warm western wind that Avad realized that dreams could come true.
**********************
In other words: Aloy and Avad are in a long-distance relationship during the events of Horizon: Forbidden West. This fic is a direct sequel to Window Bird. ❤

Summary
Loneliness is the thread which weaves together the lives of thirteen-year-old Dion Lesage, crown prince of the empire of Sanbreque, and fourteen-year-old Terence Marchand, the youngest child of a knight in the emperor's service. Fearful for their sons' well-beings in the face of duty and grief, their fathers bring them together in a bid for companionship. What follows is a story spanning nearly two decades, in which love, loss, and the fate of a kingdom weigh heavy between them.
While Dion struggles with the death of his mother and what it means to lead a nation, Terence learns that solitude isn't the safe haven he made of it as a boy. Their reliance on each other grows and so too do the burdens of war. When eventually the emperor's schemes take a turn for the tyrannical, Dion and Terence are left to salvage the soul of Sanbreque from the ashes he leaves in his wake.
Childhood Friends to Lovers. Mostly Canon Compliant.

He scoffs and begins to climb to his feet. “I’m fucking fine, so why don’t you just-”
The world turns upside down as he begins to stumble. Only a strong hand around his elbow keeps him from tumbling right into the water. She somehow stands while keeping hold of him and sighs, her cigarette still hanging from her lips. “I’m going to take you home. Not because I’m helping you. But because I wouldn’t be able to sleep if I just left you here.” She pulls him next to her, draping his arm over her shoulder. “This is a completely selfish action, so be a good boy and don’t bitch about it the whole walk back to the ranch.”
