Summary
Essek thought he knew the meaning of devotion, but watching Caleb he has now come to understand it. He sees it in the way Caleb operates, in every decision he makes. A clear devotion to his goals and his people and his passions.
When did Essek begin to feel it himself?
For decades Essek has danced with false devotion. False devotion to the Queen, to the Luxon, to his country. Yet, he is beginning to feel that the King of the Empire, Caleb Widogast, is a man he could dedicate a devout devotion to.

Summary
Crushed under the pressure of expectation, perfect son and perfect student Essek Thelyss has turned to an unusual outlet for letting off steam: selling drugs. A chance encounter in the course of his work brings him into the orbit of 'The Mighty Nein,' a group of misfits just as fucked up as he is, including his longtime academic rival, Caleb Widogast.
Friends are a foreign concept to Essek, but these weirdos are prepared to give him a crash course, and just in time. As Essek begins digging himself deeper into the criminal underworld of their small hometown, the Mighty Nein may be the only ones who can pull him back out.

Summary
The war between the Dwendalian Empire and the Kryn Dynasty finally comes to an end.
Peace, as delicate and tentative as it is, has been brokered and discussed.
Professor, turned Warmage, Caleb Widogast would be wed, as a political symbol, of the effort being made to extend that peace towards the Dynasty.
To whom, he has no idea, further than they would be Kryn.
He just hopes that he can keep the peace long enough to reach their wedding night.Bookmarked by EuPera

Summary
It is still cold, and will probably get a little bit colder through the night. It is awkward, but… from a logical standpoint… he might be used to roughing it but Essek– no matter what he says– is not. So he worries.
“Um, this might be a bit… forward,” he says shortly, “but… if we were to sleep close together, it would help us keep warm throughout the night, too.”
Essek’s hands pause in smoothing his bedding.
