  2. Summary

    Dusk and the Artist are siblings. As many siblings are, they are very different. Dusk is anxious and angry, all sharp edges all teeth all hunger. The Artist has no sharp edges at all, and their hands are soft- never mind about the scars that linger.

    A series of short stories set in the background of the NyxSMP world, sometimes featuring appearances by the main cast.

    Summary

    "No matter where; of comfort no man speak:

    Write sorrow on the bosom of the earth,
    Let's choose executors and talk of wills"

    Now an old woman playing out her final actions.

    But the death of Kings is always a painful process, and the last days are never quiet.

    Summary

    Daniil Dankovsky spent twelve days desperately trying to save a small town from a deadly plague. In the end, the army gave him a choice: save the town or the Polyhedron, an impossible tower that could serve as the basis for a new utopia. As an academic, Daniil should have chosen the Polyhedron. But he didn't. Instead, Daniil chose the town.

    Now, weeks after the army has left, Daniil struggles to find a path forward. His precious laboratory has been destroyed. Betrayed by his choice, his once-allies have turned against him. And Daniil is not the same man that he was just a few weeks before. The trauma of those twelve days, and everyone he failed, has changed him. His few remaining friends hope that encouraging him to open a medical practice in town will give him the purpose he desperately needs. Daniil is not so sure, but he is, he supposes, begrudgingly willing to give it a try.

    This story is set after the events of Pathologic Classic HD, but I have tried to write it so that if you haven't played the game in its entirety, you can still mostly understand what is happening. Major spoilers for the game, however.

    Summary

    Kiri cleared her throat, and the secretaries looked up as one. She waved the letters in one hand. “The stack in the second pigeonhole, what sort of letters are these?”

    “The ones from people who aren’t crackpots, but don’t need help from our office.”

    Cliopher nodded, satisfied. “Indeed, well-sorted.”

    Kiri held up a finger to silence him. “And?”

    There was a brief pause, before Gaudy gave an almost inaudible sigh and answered. “And who are flirting with Lord Mdang.”
