Summary
Names tucked away in history books and maps. They seem distant to modern trolls, not worth mention, but the great endeavors they achieved made modern Alternia what it is. From the blood caste system to every facet of the unification of all trolls, it all came down to a small number of rulers who really didn't know what the hell they were doing when they made history. (Non-canon, so non-canon, but it is a spirited historical drama set on Alternia.)

Summary
Когда он начинает говорить, Лайонел мягко улыбается, ободряюще, тепло, будто бы хочет поддержать свое непутевое Королевское Высочество. И он действительно поддерживает: Альберт почти не сбивается, слова, написанные кем-то другим будто сняты с его собственного языка, они заставляют упрямо вскидывать подбородок и продолжать.

Summary
There is but one word above all others never to say to Erik: that word is “impossible”.
Trapped in the Bowery after illegally immigrating to late nineteenth century America, the ever resourceful Erik feverishly poured everything into establishing himself as an elite architect. When the aristocratic architect VanHollus decided to make an example of the ambitious Frenchmen society could not fathom the war that would rage between the two rivals. Once the gauntlet was thrown both men stood to lose a fortune: VanHollus his reputation, Erik his only chance at a livelihood in the new world. Will Erik live to show the world his genius once again or will he starve in the shadows where VanHollus seems determined to confine him?
Steeped in the dynamic cultural melting pot of Manhattan in the 1880’s, the story explores the culture of the tenements dwellers in contrast to the social elite. From the soot-stained Bowery with its lively Saturday night streets, to the lavish Hoffman Hotel with its luxurious dining hall filled with the cream of the crop. Erik’s iron perseverance is the only thing capable of breaking through the barrier to lift him from a ragged laborer to an enigmatic man of consequence.

Summary
For Erik and Christine their existence in Manhattan could not be more idealistic. He, the director of the arts and first chair violinist at Carnegie Hall. She, a sought after soloist. The world has set things to right … or has it.
A serpent slithers through the dark alleys of the city scarcely detected by Erik’s network of informants. Erik’s paranoia sparks anew, and the constant vigilance wears away at the famed Nightingale. Everyone around him notes the telltale state and many believe it to stem from the recent violent death of a friend—and the replacement of the second chair violinist. But Erik, even in his hysteria, sees a pattern linking back like the scales on a viper. Someone has a longstanding grudge. Someone knows who he once was, what he once did.
And they are not the forgiving type.

Summary
In the year 1899 Erik has been in Eurasia on sabbatical. Or so the story goes. But his family harbors the dark truth. Beneath the tranquil facade they have waged a desperate battle for Erik’s sanity, and Dr. Wright is their last hope.
Faced with the most unusual patient, Wright can’t refuse this once in a lifetime case that so many others have failed to help. But the ambitious doctor is blinded by his goal to restore Erik to his former genius and fails to realize the delicate nature of his patient’s existence. It earns him a one way ticket back to Boston.
With Erik’s tentative return to society and a small role in Carnegie Hall, he and his son Charles labor to overcome the damage of the past. A love-sick Charles, socially unable to court his sweetheart, is devastated when the family’s secret destroys any chance he may have had to convince the Chantelli’s to hold Simonetta’s hand for him. In an act of empathy, Erik commits a sacrifice that no one can believe—not to restore his own shattered honor, but to secure his son’s desire.
For no one understands the cost of true love more than Erik.

Summary
You have been working at the Velvet Pink, a brothel and pub, for years now, as a tom (an AFAB person who dresses masculinely). Things are business as usual until a string of poisonings caused turmoil at the once-popular club, and a beautifully dressed woman is asking you, a simple guard, what you know.
****Yes, this is heavily inspired by tipping the velvet!
***The character only identifies as tom which is a lesbian who dresses 'like a man'. They use no gendered terms for themselves although others might. This is meant to be historically accurate to the queer terms and community of the time and society around them.
**I am no historian and I'm trying my best. -

Пока Эмгыр вар Эмрейс был в изгнании, в Нильфгаарде двадцать лет правил узурпатор, убивший его отца. За двадцать лет его правление перестало устраивать даже ранее лояльных людей. Они задумали заговор и решили, что Эмгыр станет узурпатору хорошей заменой — тихой и покладистой.
«...для этого был необходим я. Законный наследник престола и короны Империи, истинный Эмрейс – кровь от крови Эмрейсов, собственной персоной. Мне предстояло стать чем-то вроде знамени революции. Между нами говоря, многие революционеры питали надежду на то, что ничем сверх того я не буду. Те из них, которые еще живы, до сих пор не перестают об этом сожалеть».
