As night falls, Giroda's plans finally come to their fruition.

Tarnished Stardust

Chapter 3

It was dark by the time Wuyeda dismissed the other Paladins for the day, freeing him to fly down to the Temple of Wishes where the acolytes were lighting the lamps within. He flew past them without acknowledging them, only slowing when he reached the Temple's inner halls. Here, he could stop to breath, once he sensed the presence of his beloved in one of the rooms beyond.

He did not much like to be apart from Master Giroda save to do his duties as Captain of the Paladins.

A collection of moments from the life of the legendary Captain Kuroda...and his death.

Author's Note

This was my first attempt at writing a backstory for Kuroda, with an emphasis on trying to be canon compliant but, of course, the final twist is incompatible with canon.

Knight's Heart

"Do you understand, Kuroda?"

In the gentle, constant light of the beam emitted by the Starlink Stone, Kuroda could only nod and bow his head. Words to answer his father came to him, but none made it past the growing tightening sensation in his throat.

"You'll make a great Paladin," his father continued, "Remember, always follow the Wishing One."

On her day off from work, Afubo gets a surprise visitor with a box full of things from the Temple of Wishes.

Of Clay and Wattles Made

The newly established broadcast station at the crown of the Grand Millewish Tree was playing cheerful music, blanketing the entirety of the Wishing Woods with a generally jovial mood. In her hanging treehouse in the residential area below on her day off from work, Afubo couldn't help but hum along as she dusted a row of trinkets on one of her shelves. She'd collected all sorts of oddities over her many lonely years, things like threads of purity that were the wrong colors at the ends, or a yellow glimmergrass flower she'd preserved in resin, or a jar of shrunken pollen puffs Durida had given her.

Were this just a month ago, she would have been annoyed to hear such happy songs drifting down from above, but today, she didn't mind it so much. She could even hear Yoyoda in the other room, tapping his hand against the frame of his bed in time with her humming, so it seemed she was not the only one who felt that way.

After being given the role of Captain of the Paladins, Avicinda must reckon with the extent of his faith. What does he want most, from his god?

Devotion

Chapter 3: Decay

"Make sure the door is properly covered," said Chigda. "I do not wish for us to be disturbed again."

Avicinda flew to the door as instructed, taking care to pull the curtains as tight together as possible where Siyabo had left them loosely closed. It was odd, wasn't it, how little he'd felt upon seeing Captain Siyabo again, despite all she had done for him after his father had departed? But she was the one who had refused to let him stay and train...

"Avicinda, come here."

From his faith, to his eye, to his power, and to his future—all that Avicinda was...belonged to Chigda.

A collection of stories set largely in the same sort-of-alternate universe.

Main Stories

The story of the Wishing Woods' Paladins and Knights—and the grand conspiracy—has always been intertwined with the legacies of Captain Kuroda, his lover Chigda, and the Millewish Sprite.
