    Summary

    “All true visionaries are heralded as lunatics.” Anaxa scoffed at her, still managing to keep up his facade even as he lay in her arms, shivering like a kitten left out in a thunderstorm, closer to death than any man should be comfortable being.

    “You equate the minority with the rule when the reality is most madmen are just that—mad.”

     

    Anaxa is dying, and Aglaea can't understand why he doesn't care.

    Summary

    Aglaea and Anaxa have been divorced for years. Their kids are now grown up, so they have even less of a reason to see each other now.

    At least, until one day Phainon invites them over for dinner and things don’t exactly go as planned.

    Summary

    “So…what’s the deal with you and professor Anaxa?” Stelle spoke up, side eyeing her companions who all seemed to be holding their breaths in anticipation. “Do you guys hate each other?”

    Aglaea’s sightless eyes slid over to Stelle, her expression unreadable. “Certainly not. There’s simply…a difference of opinions.” Despite her calm words, her hold on her teacup tightened to the point where the delicate porcelain groaned in agony. “I’ve maintained my confidence in him regarding the protection of the coreflame over these years, even despite our…disagreements.”

    Phainon exchanged an uneasy look with Stelle, shaking his head helplessly when she turned to him for answers.

    “Lady Aglaea…” Castorice started meekly, shutting her mouth when Aglaea turned to look at her. Stelle would have shaken her head in disappointment if Castorice didn’t remind her of a sad, wet chimera.

    A muscle ticked in the ever composed weaver’s jaw. After a moment, she let out a rueful sigh. “Fine. If you really must know…” She set her teacup back down onto the table daintily. “Anaxa is my ex fiance.”

    Amidst the immediate bout of chaos that ensued after her blunt statement, Aglaea looked ten years older than usual.
