Notes
- A novelette (mapped to the short-fiction work type per this project's no-'novelette' convention) first published in the magazine Helix (2007), later reprinted in Transcriptase (2008) and collected in How Long 'til Black Future Month? (2018). Set generations before The Killing Moon/The Shadowed Sun in Gujaareh's own past, following Cet, a priest of the Dream-Goddess; a self-contained prequel rather than part of the 2-book Core Canon duology's own narrative arc. Registered Expanded Canon on that basis. Surfaced during research on the Dreamblood Duology's own admission and left deferred pending dedicated research -- now done.
