castles, they will fall (but i'll be there) by 221bdisneystreet

Summary
One night, Deet catches a shooting star—or rather, a young Gelfling named Brea who had fallen from the sky, kept afloat only by her mysterious crystal pendant. From there, the two Gelfling find themselves on a perilous journey to find the mysterious and legendary floating island of Thra. Along the way, they must team up with a ragtag crew of sky pirates who seek to unearth Thra's treasures and must evade the Skeksis who seek to control Thra's destructive automaton armies.
And perhaps they'll find something else between them, something more precious and powerful than anything Thra could possess.

Summary
Mother Aughra mentioned the existence of various universes with diverse outcomes and possibilities. Imagine if Rian and Mira had never saw the Spitter, thus preventing Mira from being taken by SkekTek. In this retelling, Rian assumes a secondary role, and instead, a Gelfling girl emerges as the central hero. Admist the unfolding adventure, there's a hint of possible romance, which may be the key to the saving of the Gelflings. Let's delve into this alternative narrative.

A Failure to Save Face by Locksnek

Summary
SkekLi returns from abroad to find that skekGra has been exiled and the court is tense and perilous. His only friends, if one can call them that, often bring the opposite of comfort in a fraught time. SkekNa finds himself, through his own patent idiocy (if that’s really all there is to it), caught up in the matter.
___________This is very UngNa-heavy and would also be filed under that series if we could have multiple series. Writing this originally got me interested in the dynamic of these three characters in particular, and I’m still obsessed with them.
Li is really put through the wringer here. I cannot overstate that.

Summary
SkekTek's experiments on the Crystal of Truth go awry. Rather than learning about essence, the skeksis find themselves having to deal with an entirely new problem, completely separate from aging and eventually dying. Inconveniently, the problem requires all else be put on hold until it gets solved.
Issue 1: This will require a certain degree of teamwork, which isn't something skeksis are known for.
Issue 2: There are other forces at work, which are neither benevolent nor nonviolent. Dying of old age may soon be the least of their worries. -

Summary
Trapped in a world very different than her own, and with little idea of how to return home, Wynn seeks help from the Skeksis, a small group of ancient beings who inhabit a mysteriously empty castle isolated in a dying land. Wynn is quick to learn that the word 'friend' here has little meaning, and that she must rely on her own wit and strategy if she wants to survive long enough to figure out a way home.
A/N (March 2025) = this story is a mess at the moment, up to chapter 17 had been edited/updated since 2022 (but I am still not happy with those changes, so expect more), and beyond that the story is still part of the old one, so both halves don't even form a cohesive story anymore. I was going to hide this story by making it private until the updates are complete, but I thought that might confuse people as I have no way of announcing what I am doing on AO3 except through writing here. Just bear in mind, if you're a new reader, well... I apologise, this will be a mess to read ^^u The finalised version will be completed this year, I will not be updating the story until all edited chapters are available. Consider this fic on HIATUS.

Summary
"It started how all things start, with skekSil the Lord Chamberlain minding everyone's business but his own....the Chamberlain had no reason to care. Nevertheless, he did care, even if only out of impartial curiosity and a boredom with the monotony of life in the castle of the Crystal. Even before he laid eyes on him, the enigmatic Fenth piqued skekSil's interest. Why would Fenth rouse the Sifan crowd to split from the other Clans?...the secession movement he instigated, this could not easily be explained by a craving for power. Fenth wasn't even the Sifan Maudra; he has very little to gain from this...Fenth's charisma was admirable and his tactics were shrewd...But skekSil never bothers to pull schemes if he has nothing to gain from them; his machinations take effort and careful planning. Therefore, the Chamberlain reasons that Fenth almost definitely has a purpose for this. SkekSil is going to sate his curiosity about said purpose.
The best way to do so would be to examine the source directly, to make the long trip to Cera-Na." -
