Summary
His Majesty had never approved of her ambitions. He’d been taken by the same spirit she’d been seeing sweep Zantine since she was a child, the same one that put the fervor in Rose’s eyes whenever she’d talked about her schooling at Wolfgramm and the same one that made people venerate Papa.
Snow would show him eventually. But for now, she was simply building her foundation.
A character study about Snow’s upbringing, and about what she did when she learned Rose was falling in love with a prisoner under her command.

Summary
Maybe if this were the wedding she was meant to have, if she weren’t bracing to beg her king’s forgiveness tomorrow, she wouldn’t be stuck sitting on the edge of her bed only minutes before she has to leave. She wouldn’t be turning a pistol over in her hands and desperately trying to convince herself that there’s no reason to keep it in her dress pocket.
Minutes before her wedding, Rose is holding a gun.

Summary
Hello, my dear fellow citizens. It is with great sadness that I come to inform you of a tragedy that occurred in the heart of the Empire this weekend. I know most of you have wondered about the rumors that have swirled across the galaxy, and I thank you for your trust and patience in awaiting an explanation. When these events have touched people so close to the king, and when they have cut so deeply, it was necessary to confirm all details before speaking publicly, out of respect for the dead, the survivors, and to you, King Cole’s people, who deserve no less than the full story.
Three in-universe documents exploring the evolution of the Crown's narrative around the Wedding Day Slaughter and what happened to Rose.

Summary
Between the time she last looked out the window and now, everything has been covered in a shimmering layer of white. It didn't snow on New Constantinople except at the poles; the climate has been too warm for that for centuries. Winter brought heavy rain and temperatures cool enough to require a jacket. This is something else entirely. It's… Cordelia has to admit that it is beautiful.
Six weeks after the Wedding Day Slaughter, General White sees snow for the first time.
