tgcf realm of the elderlings au (this is a very self-indulgent post for me to ramble into the void about this au. literally nothing will make sense if you havent read at least part of the six duchies series of ROTE)
here are my general notes:
- XL is the crown prince of the six duchies, and is very powerful in the skill. jun wu seals his skill (though he can still be supported by other skill users if they're touching him, sort of similar to whatever fitz and verity had going on, just like how he can borrow spiritual energy in canon) and HC breaking the shackle in tgcf translates to him figuring out what the unlocking word is in this au
- ^ the being supported by other skill users thing is mostly used to create a skill link since theyre basically just the tgcf communication arrays
- when he was a prince, XL was in/forming a coterie with FX and MQ. the two of them are solos now but end up working together a lot regardless because of their existing skill connection
- hualian's meeting is basically identical to canon; XL is putting on a performance to the gods during springfest or winterfest and catches HC when he falls from a wall
- HC is both witted and skilled and he's bonded with e-ming, idk what animal e-ming would be yet. his mother is from jamaillia but moved to buck to be with HC's father. in the present day of this au he owns an estate that serves as a sanctuary for witted folk in one of the duchies
- HC dies on the battlefield fighting with yong'an like in tgcf; he's brought back by e-ming thru the wit fitz-style
- yong'an (one of the duchies) stages a coup, led by lang ying #1, and takes over buckkeep -- people were willing to join in because they were displeased with the current royal family from being unable to stop an outbreak of forgings in the six duchies
- jun wu takes the place of the pale woman and kebal rawbread in that he is causing the forging, which he stops once yong'an is in power
- speaking of jun wu -- he was the skillmaster for xianle and later got that position back when yong'an took over
- (please dont ask me about fangxin ive spent so long figuring out how/if that'd work and I cant decide. so idk if lang qianqiu is in power or if his father is, but lang ying is definitely dead)
- jun wu as bai wuxiang teaches xie lian how to create forged ones and xie lian is about to attempt to wipe out the yong'an duchy with a combination of forging and skill. not sure how he gets stopped here
i think about this au a lot it's so fun to smash my hyperfixations together and try desperately to figure out what translates to what and what could possibly make sense in an au. hope this post reaches the 1 other fan of both of these book series out there

in tgcf role swap AUs I think something people are sleeping on is a reversal of beefleaf. I always see SQX being turned into a calamity and HX being turned into a god, but I think you can go a step further. like it'd be really interesting if SQX was still in heaven, and still considered the wind master, but like HX in canon, they stole that role from the ACTUAL wind master -- and then HX actually ascended as the earth master (or a civil god since that fits him better, could go either way), but in the way that SQX did in canon. what makes this concept the most interesting to me is that shi wudu also has a direct parallel -- in this AU, he xuan's younger(iirc?) sister could take the role of water master, having found a way to make her older brother ascend to help him and their family
assuming everyone else is also swapped in this AU, or at the very least hualian, I also think it'd be an interesting way to explore how the relationship between SQX and XL might be a bit different in a situation like this (as well as SQX's personality)
