Summary: Keith thought he’d passed the Trials of Marmora, but when he approaches Kolivan looking for information about his mother, he learns there are four more Trials to pass before he can call himself a Blade.

Kolivan, Antok, and Thace watch as Keith undertakes the remainder of his Trials, and they remember their own Trials—a grueling ordeal from which no one emerges unchanged. They cannot aid him in the Trials, but they can help him prepare, and they can help him through the aftermath. After all, the Blades are kin, and kin does not let kin suffer alone.

One part Dads of Marmora, one part Kolivan introspective. The “No More Dead Blades AU” (aka basically canon-compliant, but Ulaz, Antok, Thace, and Regris are all alive.)

Fire has been important to humans from long before Homo sapiens walked on the earth. It kept the night from being overwhelmingly desolate and dangerous for our eyes that aren't adapted to low light to and cooked food that allowed our brains to grow to their current size. Until recently, it was believed that the sun was a fire in the sky, explaining its light and heat. Fire holds a special mesmerism to us still, as well as being one of the most dangerous naturally occurring forces in nature.

Some cultures have multiple fire deities, depending on the source and purpose of the fire. For example, the Yorùbá people have an Orisha for blacksmiths' fires in Ògún, one for fire related to thunder and lightning in Ṣàngó, who is also able to breathe fire when angered, and another for sunlight and heat in Aggayú. Some cultures have a gods that brought fire to humans, such as Mixcoatl of the Aztec, who was a hunting god who brought fire to humans by inventing the fire drill, the method of rotating a stick rapidly against a stationary piece of wood, called a spindle and fireboard respectively. There are some cultures that link fire with the arts, such as Nusku of the Sumerian Nuska, who was also the god of fire and light, the sukkal, vizier or advisor of Enlil, the god of earth, air, wind, and storms.
