Now, the memories pour into his mind, landing on one of his most infamous - the one that instilled fear into the people of Ardhalis as a whole - the street he’d turned into a river of blood one afternoon. Hanbury.

Summary:

A three (and a half)-part short story collection that is set at three different points in time after the conclusion of the presumed War of Ardhalis and following the Phantom Scythe’s destruction. Part 1: With the city still smoldering in the aftermath of the recent civil war, Kieran has decided to leave Ardhalis for the time being to let the city recover and move on from the tragedy that the PS has brought. Lauren watches his departure and travels the city absent-mindedly as she struggles with the unexpected void left by her partner. Part 1.5: Kieran struggles to write a letter informing Lauren of his return back to Ardhalis. Part 2: Set five years later, Kieran has at last returned to Ardhalis. Lauren is there to greet him upon his arrival, and the two travel through some of their old haunts, enjoying the company of each other. Part 3: Decades have now passed, and as Lauren and Kieran reach their twilight years, they reminisce on all the things they have done throughout their life - the turmoil and struggles that they have overcome together, as well as the tender moments they’ve had in their relationship as a couple and the unexpected antics of their children.

Summary:

Kieran had been part of a notorious band for the late years of his teens and his early twenties. Notorious meaning: stories of drinking, hazardously left hotel rooms and smashed instruments. Because somehow his old management thought that there was no bad news, only news that got him or more like the band he played in more famous. And it was his role, his task, to make the band have a story after every concert. He owed it to them, or so his managers told him. They were the ones who made him have enough money to live on his own after all. But after a fight with his bandmate Belladonna, he was kicked off. Disillusioned and ready for his next drink, Kieran stumbled into a bar. And heard a voice so mesmerizingly beautiful, he just had to be part of her band, whatever it took. Luck is on his side, as Lauren, the one with the beautiful voice and face and personality and everything, Kym, ball of chaos and energy on the drums, and Will, the calming background vocalist and keyboarder, on the verge off getting traction in the industry, are searching for a new bass player…
