Summary
“We’re the same age, the young Caesar and I,” Nicolò said by way of distracting Yusuf because right then, he looked sad.
“You’re way taller and better-looking than him,” Yusuf said vindictively. “That’s what you got growing up drinking Rome’s filthy water.”
“I drink Rome’s filthy water, too.” Nicolò smiled. “Though I was born in this place called Liguria, do you know it? It’s in the north.” Nicolò didn’t really know why he felt he needed to share.
“Tiberius told you?”
Nicolò nodded, bending to submerge half his face, too, seeing Yusuf from the same angle – half of his face obscured by steam and half a rippling reflection.
“Where were you born, Yusuf?” Nicolò whispered, careful with his words as if they could hurt his friend.
Yusuf closed his eyes and left Nicolò in silence for a long time, he started to fidget.
Then, “Carthage. To the south,” he said without opening his eyes.
---
Raised in the Eastern Roman Empire as hostages from conquered outer provinces, Yusuf and Nicolò were separated by circumstances and meet again on the opposing sides of 698's Battle of Carthage. -

Summary
In a world in which supernatural creatures exist, immortal beings rely on a potion to preserve their sanity: If taken every couple of decades, Praeservitum erases just enough memories from an immortal lifespan to make sense of them all and live an unburdened life.
Joe is a vampire who's never had trouble with Praeservitum. If his life sometimes feels a bit lonely, he doesn’t want to blame a memory potion for it.
Nicky is a werewolf who has grown sceptical of the potion, as he feels increasingly like there is something missing from his life that used to be there, if only he could remember.
A chance encounter sees Nicky rescue Joe from a sticky situation. Although apprehensive of each other at first – they are a vampire and werewolf, after all – Nicky offers to help Joe when his friend goes missing. As they embark on a journey through the night, their lives unravel before them: where are all these memories coming from? And is this really the first time they’ve met?
