Summary
Whenever Caleb travels via familiar, he trusts the others to keep him safe. Mollymauk thinks the Mighty Nein take this responsibility too lightly. He’s right.
He knelt in front of the vulnerable wizard. It gave him satisfaction that the human fit neatly between his knees. If he’d wanted to make this short, he could have snapped the man's neck. Instead, he breathed. Something, the warmth or the smell, reached beyond the fey veil. The man stirred and gave a very slow blink, as one in the midst of a dream. His chin tipped up, gazing at the enemy looming over him with unseeing eyes, and in a soft, accented voice that Talisman remembered from the square, he asked, "Fjord?"
An actual sigh of pleasure slipped from his lips. It was too perfect. "No, my dear." He lifted two fingers, and in a voice of Power, he touched the man's temple. "Lock."

Summary
"It’s a beautiful day at the Soltryce Academy—the sky is vibrant and the trees rustle with the gentlest of winds as Caleb begins his impromptu Transmutation lecture outside. From the building on the edge of the grounds he hears a muffled bell tolling for fifth period. Somewhere in the distance, a student begins to whistle.
At that moment, Caleb feels at peace.
At that moment, a Purple Worm bursts forth from the soil directly in front of him, and all of his plans for a pleasant afternoon are promptly dashed."
---
Caleb and Essek have finally settled down - more or less. While the beloved and somewhat eccentric Professor Widogast is busy inciting small student-scale riots and teaching tiny wizards morals, Essek spends his days lounging around the house, drinking wine and experimenting with the exotic concept of 'cooking his own meals'. They are pretty sure life is great - until two pre-teen assassins crash-land into the middle of the Soltryce Academy and demand the former Shadowhand be surrendered to their custody. What are the two internationally in/famous mages to do? The answer will shock absolutely no one.- Language:

Summary
When the Mighty Nein parted ways, they left an important enemy alive, so he might stand trial.
The road to conviction is a long one, fraught with pain, judgment, and the terrifying reality of trying to convince the world to take the word of an assassin-turned-mercenary over one of its most prolific propagandists.
All rise for the trial of Trent Ikithon, former Archmage of Civil Influence.

Summary
Malik awoke suddenly – eyes snapping open in the darkness of the room. It took him half a moment to realise what had woken him, hand reaching for his sword scabbard before he had even noticed the figure by the window. Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad, The Son of None... the Eagle, highlighted by the moon and half turned towards him – light coloured eyes just visible piercing through the shadows and his robes loose, baring the bloody wound on his shoulder.
Semi AU where Al Mualim raises Altair and trains him like a hunting bird: his Eagle, capable of the near impossible. Malik is never in Solomon's Temple and remains an assassin. There are still nine significant targets to be assassinated, and even bigger threats to the brotherhood to uncover...

Summary
Caleb Widogast returns a stolen Luxon Beacon to the Kryn Dynasty knowing it will cost him safety—and possibly his freedom.
What he does not expect is to be seen.
As judgment unfolds in the Bright Queen’s court and Trent Ikithon refuses to release his claim, Caleb finds himself under the watch of Essek Thelyss, the Dynasty’s Shadow Hand. What begins as supervision becomes conversation, then trust, then something quieter and far more dangerous: understanding.
