description: A Finalist for the 2014 Hugo Award for Best Novelette. The brothers of the Order of St. Dioscurus live in peace and solitude near the northern borders of the Amorran Empire, seldom disturbed by visitors or travelers passing by. Therefore it is a great surprise to the brotherhood when an elf in search of answers he cannot find among his fellow magisters not only visits their abbey, but elects to stay with them for a time.  Opera Vita Aeterna is a story set in the epic fantasy world of A Throne of Bones. It is a tale of three loves: the love of knowledge, the love of a friend, and the love of God.
