    Summary

    Antonio nods. “Don’t be like that, brother,” he says. “You knew this was coming.”

    “I thought we had more time before the next Game,” Afonso admits his wishful thinking. “The new Joker, is it–”

    “It won’t be you or your Queen, rest assured,” Antonio says with a more sincere smile. “It won’t be anyone who’s already been Named. They’re never chosen for this role.”

    “And the Game?”

    Antonio laughs. “Oh, you know I’m not allowed to tell you about that!”

    With the turning of a new cycle, Afonso is forced to confront the past he would rather forget. Time is running out. Soon enough, he would have to make a choice between the Queen he swore to serve and the brother he once failed to save.

    And Antonio? Antonio just wishes his brother would live to see the future.

    Summary

    For as long as João could remember, he had wanted to live on the water. 

    Several years later he's achieved that and more, settling down with his husband, Abel, in a picturesque part of Amsterdam, but there's a part of his dream left waiting, unachieved. A childhood yearning he still hopes to make real.

    Summary

    What it was about the sea that called to him so was a mystery, but whatever such magic or hidden memory it was, it was powerful. There was no denying it. It was the only thing he was certain he needed: to hear the sea, to see the sea, to be here right next to the sea. There was an innate joy he felt in its presence. And not just joy, but peace; not just peace, but comfort. 

    On days like this one, it was clear to Gabriel that this was where he was meant to be.

    Summary

    After fleeing the factory months ago, Arthur thought that his luck would improve. Instead phantoms chase him without mercy. Sleep is stolen by fear for what he might lose, and for everyone he’s left behind in that hell. 

    The bad days threaten to eclipse the good, but perhaps there’s still a chance to break through. Move on. To see the city with wonder as opposed to dread, and live a life with love, not regrets.
