Summary
Nireli is no hero, trained since childhood in the art of murder. She was meant to rot in the Imperial dungeon for a botched assassination contract, but the Emperor went ahead and practically died in her arms. Now this Dark Brotherhood assassin is free, and in possession of the Amulet of Kings. As she journeys across Cyrodiil, she is pulled between two polar opposite worlds.
The Emperor's unlikely champion continues to be summoned back into the shadows, and each life she takes pulls her further from the path of redemption. Yet, the ever-growing threat of the Oblivion Crisis forces her to question the only family and life she's ever known.

Summary
“May the gods grant you strength,” says Emperor Uriel Septim VII, nothing but relief on his face, and lets the mace crush his head.
-
Sorona Vausier is a young Breton battlemage of the Imperial Legion, imprisoned under false charges. When Emperor Uriel Septim bids her to seek out his bastard son Martin, for the salvation of all Tamriel, she has no idea just how much that act will change her life. But the threads of Fate have bound her life to the last Septim heir, and loyalty unto death is an oath she swears easily....if only it was her life the gods bid her sacrifice.

Summary
The Blood Rite has passed. Briallyn is dead. It's quiet, too quiet for Azriel, whose increasing loneliness is compounded by the fact that it seems his family is moving on with their lives without him. He had no mate, and Rhys had made it abundantly clear that Elain was off the table. No one wanted him. How long would it be before his brothers no longer needed him at all?
Eris really needed to kill his father and yet no matter what he had told the illustrious Night Court, he had no plan for it. Killing a high lord was extremely difficult, after all. But his current situation was untenable, especially as Beron started looking beyond the bounds of his own court. How many more lies could Eris balance before his life came crashing down around him?
This starts immediately after ACOSF and ignores anything from CC3.
