    Summary

    **MAJOR SPOILERS FOR 1X06!! DO NOT READ BELOW!!**

    “Do you have any idea,” Essek demands, voice breaking at last, “what it is like to murder your own mother?”
    For a heartbeat, Caleb does not move.
    Then he nods.
    “Yes,” he says. “I do.”

    A re-imagining of the confrontation from episode 97 from the original campaign, with this new alternate Essek backstory from the animated series, told from Essek's POV. Mostly Caleb and Essek focused, with some canon Jester and Caduceus dialogue.

    Summary

    Something grabs at the back of his coat and suddenly he’s flying, pulled up out of the water to land in a sodden heap in a small rowboat, the world’s most ungainly fish. He scrabbles away from his rescuer, expecting to feel pain again, his father’s men back to finish the job. Instead there’s a boy with light brown skin and grey eyes, the most handsome face he’s ever seen.

    As he casts around, confused, he finds himself looking into a pair of boundless dark eyes, a pale face cold as canal water. “Wylan Van Eck?” the man asks, his voice like rust, his tone as formal as if they’re being introduced at some banquet. Wylan is too startled to do anything but nod.

    Pekka Rollins and Jan Van Eck have made a deal. Kaz Brekker wants to sabotage it. What better way than to take Van Eck's son hostage on his way to music school?

    Meanwhile, Jesper wants the cute merchling they've kidnapped to smile at him, and Wylan just wants to survive the night.

    Summary

    They lie on the edge of the roof, watching the guests arrive at the Ice Court, dignitaries, performers, the workers from the West Stave houses. In the midst of the glittering crowds one group stands out, a blot of darkness among the gaudy frocks and suits.

    Inej inhales sharply. She’s looking down at the man in the centre of the group, whose reddish hair is going sparse on top. “Isn’t that–”

    Beside Jesper, Wylan stills, his body a tense line.

    “Van Eck,” Kaz confirms. His face turns grimmer than usual.

    Wylan’s secret is revealed at the worst time, and in the worst way. Everything afterwards happens a little differently.

    Summary

    On the Ferolind, Wylan is alone. Or not exactly alone—but Inej is hurt, Nina is tending to her, Kaz just gouged a man’s eye out, and he and Jesper are fighting, like they have been since Wylan’s identity as Wylan Van Eck was revealed.

    Which leaves the escaped convict ex-drüskelle in shackles, grappling with the guilt of betraying his country, who also hates them all. And somehow, he and Wylan get to talking about God.

    -

    or, Wylan Van Eck on his way to the Ice Court with the Crows, unpacking religion, and Matthias Helvar doing much of the same, while also somehow, unintentionally, mediating Wylan and Jesper’s fight.
