Summary
ON SEMI-HIATUS UNTIL I FIGURE OUT THE PLOT MORE, REWRITE IMMINENT
There's nothing familiar about the world outside the walls of Sylvain. It cannot be seen - the Quell's thick fog consumes it all: ruined cities, feral Sylphs, ancient unspeakable terrors, forgotten libraries full of dusty knowledge. In isolation, Sylvain's last survivors huddle behind the walls of their city as the storm closes in.
Until, four months after the Ashminder is killed, they realize that there's one last option.
Something is falling from the Sylvan sky, far and fast. Something built of teeth and stone is stirring in the bowels of the planet. There's a glowing necklace inside a double-locked safe somewhere in Kepler. And on Earth, our three heroes find that their planets and pasts hold more secrets than any of them could have believed.

Summary
Whenever he cast magic, it was a cosmic roll of the dice. So when it came to finding Snippers, it was easiest to stand up and actually do it himself, rather than use magic to call him back.
It wasn’t that he was afraid. No, no, that wasn’t it at all. That couldn’t be it; it was physically impossible. Sir Fitzroy Maplecourt was a knight, after all, and knights weren’t supposed to be afraid.
---
Or, four places Fitzroy found Snippers the Crab, and one place Snippers found him.

Summary
Hollis - ˈhä -lis: Transferred use of the English surname meaning "dweller at the holly trees." It is derived from the Old English holegn (holly tree).
Holly- ˈhä-lē, noun: any of a genus (Ilex of the family Aquifoliaceae, the holly family) of trees and shrubs,
especially either of two (I. opaca of the eastern U.S. and I. aquifolium of Eurasia) with spiny-margined evergreen leaves and usually red berries often used for Christmas decorations. In Victorian flower language, holly flowers mean defense and protection, and, less commonly, hope.---
Hollis has many, many questions about the woods they grew up in. They just want to know what's out there; they always have. They see teeth gleaming in the shadows; sometimes, late at night, they hear mournful howls on the wind, or the cries of dying beasts. Kepler is dangerous. The forest is dangerous. (And sometimes they think they can hear it speaking to them. But that's ridiculous. Isn't it?)
Hollis doesn't know how, or why, and there's only so many questions they can ask. But they're willing to give almost anything to find out the answers.

Summary
This is not the apocalypse; it is just a fun game to pass the time until it comes. An angel and a demon aren't quite sure that's what they would call it, but they're along for the ride whether they like it or not. The drums of revolution are calling them. People will die. People will be freed. Heaven and Hell pick no sides.

Summary
"Well then," said Saber, as she raised her glass to her lips. "May the best king win."
(Or, the one where Saber makes questionable life choices, Diarmuid refuses to live up to Irish stereotypes, and there is way too much alcohol going around, even for Servants.)
