Ingrid Rosemary Margaret Heffingshire preferred to be called Inni, spend time in the barn with her Welsh pony Buttercup and in general avoid a mother who insisted she be ladylike and learn how to move in the upper echelons of Musimagium society. A mysterious invitation means a chance at freedom, but it also means the beloved pony she's adored and won ribbons with may be more than she seems. Will an unlikely ally help her make a bid for freedom from the stuffy life her mother wants for her?
Sun and shadow, dark and light. This story is a duology with Luna Lucet showcasing the other point of view and was inspired by Mercedes Lackey's filk song, Sun and Shadow.
A flamen (priest) of Apollo is denied membership into an elite order of priests because of his disability--he has night terrors in the dark due to a traumatic incident as a child. But he's determined to compose something new during the total eclipse, so with his rooster socius, Lyre, and his violin, he goes to the gazebo in the facility he lives in for disabled mages.
But he's not alone. Someone has been drawn to the gazebo. By whom, he doesn't know, but suddenly he discovers, he's not alone. The only problem is she's photosensitive and can't bear more than the slightest hint of sunlight.
