Word count: 14,500
Pairings: background Nelaid/Miril and Kit/Nita, semi-sort-of-implied Dairine/Roshaun
Summary: In the summer following Roshaun’s disappearance, Dairine spends more and more time on Wellakh, while Miril struggles to control the political unrest that’s forcing her to remember some parts of her past she would rather forget.
Notes: Written for the prompt fest over at
dai_stiho. Great and bountiful thanks are due to
araine, who, in addition to acting as a beta for this story and responding to my frantic “this isn’t working!” emails with cool logic and common sense, has severely influenced my Wellakh-related headcanon with her YW forums post on Wellakhit society (as has input from the forums members who responded to this post). Without her, this story would have foundered and died long ago!
