    Summary

    It felt as though fate had posed him a question then.

    Would a knight still fight for those who might not even know his name?

    What a ridiculous question. The answer had been easy enough.

    If fate was bold enough to show its hand, then perhaps he too should play the hand that he was dealt.

    Part 2 of my quest to write an AU based on the Amsvartnir world quest, except this fic barely references that world quest anymore lmao

    Highly recommended that you read the previous part before starting this one

    Summary

    In the sea of azure flames stood a lone figure, with long, flickering tendrils of fire as its hair and flowing flares as its robes.

    Slowly, it turned its head, white-hot flames flaring where its eyes should be. Its gaze met with Varka’s, and its face cracked open into an eerie grin, smiling almost ear to ear. The pale flames of the vampire’s eyes retreated, and in its place, revealed human-like irises— They were golden. A bright, beautiful gold. Like fireflies along riverbanks, like stars in the night sky.

    The fire of its face gave way to unveil thin, pale lips. They parted with a sigh, golden eyes narrowed, and the vampire spoke.

    Please,

    Lay me to rest with those buried under these graves.

    ***

    Of which vampire Flins wished to meet his end, but Varka begged to differ.

    Thought to be a threat by the Lightkeepers and the Knights of Favonius, Flins was held prisoner in Piramida following a huge outbreak of the Wild Hunt in Final Night Cemetery, and through their transactions, Varka gradually learnt more and more about vampires and the ghouls that they brought upon these lands— the Wild Hunt.

    Summary

    When he answered the summons, Lady Tsunade handed him the mission scroll without more than a short greeting, and he read through it carefully. “A bodyguard assignment?” he asked incredulously, eyeing the S-rank label at the top of the page as though it were a lie.

    “For the eldest son of the Fire Daimyō, yes.”

    If the client was so high-reaching, then the ranking made sense. But the estimated duration on the scroll was listed as unknown, which nagged him. “I’ll be protecting the heir apparent, then.”

    “Not quite.”

    OR:

    A mission from the Fire Daimyō brings Kakashi to the capital, where he'll be guarding the lord's outcast son, who has driven off every bodyguard assigned to him thus far. He prepares for another painful assignment with an unpleasant client, but quickly realizes his assumptions are off the mark.

    It's the daimyō's court that's unpleasant, not the prince.

    Summary

    Lanterns. Caged flames, tamed into obedience. Cursed to burn only where they’re told and no more than they’re allowed to. A tool.

    Flins is a Lantern Fae, the only one of his kind. Known as the Azure Flame, he is feared by both fae and humans. Stripped of his name and memories by the Tsar, he exists as little more than a weapon: a hunting hound bound to its master, a flame condemned to burn only where commanded. For centuries, he has accepted this as his fate.

    That is, until in the midst of a routine and merciless task, he encounters a Captain of the Lightkeepers: a faction that dares to resist the unyielding dominion of the fae over humanity. Mistaking Flins for a human who has lost his name to a cruel fae, the Captain offers him a place among the Lightkeepers. Giving the Tsar an idea for Flins’s next mission:

    To infiltrate the Lightkeepers and destroy them from the inside.

    But could a creature feared even by his own kind truly pass as human? Especially with that insufferably persistent Captain refusing to leave his side, hovering, prying, and dragging him ever closer to a life he was never meant to have.

    Could something born in a cage ever learn how to be free?

    Summary

    "Last question then, what’s your quirk?”

    “Uh, I guess my sweet tooth?” The detective’s brows scrunch in confusion, which is understandable, because most people have a sweet tooth. Satoru’s is just a bit extra. He chuckles proudly and gives Tsukauchi a grin. “I pretty much only eat sweets, ya know? No better nourishment than sugar!”

    The detective looks a little miffed, muttering something like, “That can’t be healthy,” but writes something down anyway.
