He had meant it in jest... he had been meant to be as safe as the queen he guarded... so why...? RoTT-SPOILERS!

A random assortment of one-shots and drabbles collected from throughout the realm. Why does the Minister of War dislike Attolia? And what is Relius thinking about marriage? [WARNING! Now contains SPOILERS for Thick as Thieves! BEWARE!]

A little meta take on the time when Eugenides complains about the Magus telling the creation myth wrong.

Eugenides swore that everyone who betrayed him would die choking on their own blood. Unfortunately for them, he gets the chance to prove it. (Dark AU of Return of the Thief.)

Attolia is slowly turning to stone. This is not a metaphor.

As long as Costis didn't look back, his king was still at least theoretically alive.

Hippophobia: The fear of horses Five times Eugenides reluctantly got on a horse and one time he was willing.

Hundreds of years after Eugenides Annux dies, his descendants are visiting a museum when the Thief comes to call.

Attolia listens to Ornon and decides to hang Eugenides instead of cutting off his hand. This goes exactly as well as you might expect.

The little peninsula is finally at peace, and it's high time for Eugenides to go back to doing whatever he wants.

Even centuries after his death, the legend of Eugenides lives on. Whether the invading armies like it or not.

Their lives are already legend, and legends are immortal. People are not.

Philologos untangles one of the king's mysteries.

Le fait est : Attolia n'est pas sensuelle. Elle a figé sa beauté comme une statue de marbre, terrible et intouchable. Mais il y a une part d'elle – la part qu'Eugénides a vu, l'adolescente qui dansait seule à la lumière de la lune, la part qu'elle n'a eu de cesse d'assassiner pour être la reine qu'elle voulait être – qui aimerait savoir le séduire.

Getting Costis to hit him was a lot harder than Eugenides had expected it to be.

AU from Queen of Attolia. Attolia takes what she wants. Written for Yuletide 2017.
