Word count: 14,500
Pairings: background Nelaid/Miril and Kit/Nita, semi-sort-of-implied Dairine/Roshaun
Prompt: 41. Nelaid/Miril: With the apparent death of Roshaun, Wellakh is changing—and so is Dairine.
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: Great and bountiful thanks are due to

...and here's Part 2!
