"Thank you for sticking through all of Fate's design changes."

To escape extinction, our merna couples, immortal creatures of human imagination, have gone from being hunted for their divinely-given powers to surviving in the mundanity of the human world without magic.

However, that means, dare we say it, living normal lives like everyday souls! Born from fan requests and spun into pure gold, these short stories weave tales featuring of some of our favorite merna-couples and their children.

Ian and Nephtyri-What was their mating night really like, and how do the tides of humanity's wars affect not only the parents of this beloved couple, but also their blended family of children?

Bjorn and Rochelle-How many children does Bjorn really give Rochelle, and how do they end up living in Canada, when the rest of their found family live places warmer and farther south?

Frey and Lee-How far does Frey take his love of crafting beverages, and what does Lee do as a mother figure? How does this unconventional couple uphold diversity among humans?

Vouvry and Maria-A mystery is afoot, as Maria is not sure why Vouvry only works away from her a few days a year. She leans into loving his presence at their family bakery, but what is he hiding in his urban lair?

Snow and Harumi-What is life like for the couple living farthest from their brethren? Will their love give them the strength to continue? Will they make up for lost time?

Life still has meaning beyond magic, especially with a feral found family. This poignant and amusing set of stories join some of our favorite couplings as they navigate what did not happen on the pages of the mainline quest.
