Stories! Love for people and land

The Ravages of Spring by [archiveofourown.org profile] ariadnes_string. "When Morgon first returned to Osterland, he came as a wind down the chimney of Har’s great hearth. He thought the wolf king might appreciate that." A lovely brief story after Patricia McKillip's Riddle-Master trilogy. I have read those books many times, and this gets the tone and movement and relationships of them just right.

Fill to me the parting glass by [archiveofourown.org profile] someinstant. “You will be nervous, the first time,” Chalice had told her in the first months of her apprenticeship. “The binding will feel heavy, and you will have to push through. Steady your hands thusly,” she had said, demonstrating the First Hold, the one that allowed a Chalice to press their wrists to their chest, providing stability. (Or, Three first bindings, and one final Chalice.)" In the world of Chalice by Robin McKinley. I haven't read the book, but this story makes me think I would like it. And I love the song, The Parting Glass

This Lovely Green by [archiveofourown.org profile] tryfanstone. "I'll have a garden or nothing at all," Lovejoy said. In the world of An Episode of Sparrows by Rumor Gotten. A strong sense of place and relationships, even without knowing canon.
