	The Golden Elephante: Part Nine He spotted the statue. "You've found the Golden Elephante! Well, maybe his Majesty won't throw you two adventurers in the dungeon, after all." by rachelindea
	The Vitruvian Wizard: Part Three The desert sands were harsh on Septimus's face, and the heat was doing him no favours either. For a man born and bred in Neopia Central, and having spent much of his adult life in the dark and dank cellars of the Museum, the desert was a shock to his system. by herdygerdy
	Ruined Library: Part Six An urgent singsong voice broke into Lae's dreams. It was sweet, but harrowed, and had the tone of someone about to commit a desperate act. by aquadaika
	Temptation: Part Six "No matter, morning will be soon enough, my dear." Artro waved a hand and allowed the suitcases to drop to the ground. by april_pumpkin
	Honor Among Thieves: Part Four Stealing the proof they needed would be, as it turned out, far easier said than done. It would either be in Lady Marcia's apartment in the palace or the mage's rooms in the Mages' College.

	Number Five: Part Three The cart slowly glided to a halt in front of the gigantic Sakhmet entrance gates. My eyes grew wide at the sight. by sarahbunnii
	My Zebie: Part Two "You don't sell any at all?" I asked. Victorie looked at me and her smile lessened a little. "No, I'm afraid not." by goodsigns

"A Different Type of Present" by snowflakesandfrost
"So," she finally says, breaking the silence, but not the tension, "do you think we'll be able to go to the Advent Calendar in two days?" She doesn't have to look at his face to see his expression. "Were you looking forward to that, Luna?" She nods, slow and sad. She had been, he knew it. She knew it. It was the only thing she could talk about..."
