Summary
At last, there is peace in Masyaf. The Templar has been defeated, and the Power of Eden is theirs. The Eagle of Masyaf, even, is back.
And yet.
Five years after he lost everything, Malik al-Sayf struggles with the consequences of their acts. The world is never black, or white, or even grey; it is kaleidoscope. Nothing is true, everything is permitted, and from the multicoloured shatters of the many lives that could have been, would have been,
(have never been)
it is up to them to rebuild Masyaf.
The illusion of Paradise is now lost; and in its place, it is time to build a home.
------
The third (and final) part of the "Eagle of Masyaf" Omegaverse AU. This time, with less assassin-on-assassin murder attemps, even longer historical context footnotes that will probably make you cry, and, last, but not least:
everybody, at some point in this story, gets An Actual Break. At last, the (somewhat) happy end.

Summary
The Journey begins with a Fool's first step.
-
An Astarion-centric retelling of the main plot, this series is inspired by the Fool's Journey, a story told through the Rider-Waite-Smith Tarot's Major Arcana.
Each chapter stands for a card. Each chapter is a step closer to apotheosis.

Summary
"Altaïr ibn La'Ahad is what they called me. But I would prefer if you continued calling me Ibrahim in public."
Her eyes widened.
"You? You are the Eagle of Masyaf?"
And that was an easy enough question to settle. For the first time, there, he let his eyes burn while she watched, heard her breath catch at the unnatural sight of them. Let that be answer enough.
"I didn't expect-"
"An omega? None of them do."
------
A lost soul in the storm, Altaïr ibn La'Ahad must seek a new beginning, far from the loss of his home and brothers in Masyaf.
An Omegaverse AU story and the second act sequel to "An Exercise In Flight", now complete with Rauf gratuitously kicking Malik's ass and even longer end notes :D

Summary
Seeing the map, in all its golden splendour, calls to Altaïr like a djinn. Moving without thought, he picks the orb from the floor and then, there is silence.
And then, there is pain.
-
"How did this happen?"
"You see, I prayed really hard to Allah yesterday and he decided, in his infinite wisdom and grace, that the Eagle of Masyaf ought to have a pair of wings."
"No, seriously."
"How the fuck should I know, Malik?"

Summary
"I would rather die."
"You are certain of this?"
A nod.
"Very well. For breaking the tenets of our Creed and losing the life of one of our own, you, Altaïr ibn La'Ahad, shall pay with your head. Take him away."
-----------
With freedom clipped by failure at the Temple of Jerusalem, arrogance exerts a heavy cost on Altaïr. Trapped by his loyalty to the Order and indebted by the losses caused by his mistakes, the young omega must make difficult decisions if he is ever to fly again.

Summary
The knife goes in. The tower falls. When Jon opens his eyes, he is sitting in the uncomfortable chair in front of Elias Bouchard's desk, signing his employment contract as the Magnus Institute's newest researcher.
He is alone in his memories of the future; his old friends might as well be worlds away. He demonstrably does not do well alone.
Luckily, in the year 2011, he has options.

Summary
“I want to die.”
That gets his attention — Gustave’s eyes fly wide open, and he takes a step back. Like Verso is a lunatic who is better to be avoided. “I beg your pardon?”
“I want to die,” Verso repeats. “And I can’t do it on my own. You’re one of the smartest men in Lumière, you’re good with chroma. I need your help.”
Or: Verso is trying to find a way out. Gustave helps.

Summary
"I'm leaving Paris," Verso says brusquely, by way of a greeting. He has never been very good with words; that has always been Papa's strength, not his.Gustave inhales sharply, watching him in silence, his hands clutching his notebook so hard the spine begins to twist.
"You want me to come with you," he says finally, looking at Verso as though he has entirely lost his mind.
Or:
Time is running out. With war looming over Belle Epoque Paris, Verso must make a choice between his duty to his family and the young Writer who has unknowingly stolen his heart.
He chooses Gustave.
