❝Beneath obsidian skies and glass stars, that is where thorns bloom. ❞

To prevent an impending war and to establish peace between the two kingdoms of Camelot and Lucia, King Uther and King Lunden agree to marry Prince Arthur of Camelot and Princess Alma of Lucia. Bearing the weight of the prosperity and amity of both kingdoms, the young royals are wed and Princess Alma travels to Camelot, where she may one day become queen.

Shrouded by King Uther's suspicious gaze, the couple's coldness, and billowing, dark magic, the stability of the pact of tranquility trembles at the edge of fate's thorns as the marriage between the young royals withers. A simple misstep and both kingdoms will be plunged into the violent cacophony of bloodshed and upheaval. Alma and Arthur must navigate hardships within the confines of their marriage, appeasing mysterious forces so the greatness of their kingdoms doesn't collapse underneath heaven's omnipotence.

Blooming below obsidian skies and glass stars, a tender tendril flourishes along the steady earth's dome, intertwined stalks of courage, bravery, love and a little bit of magic. Courting the young couple, the two dance cautiously amidst the thorns and tendrils, careful steps mirroring the earth's heartbeat. While darkness looms overhead, those thirsting for power work to topple Camelot, the symphony between the two lovers intensifies as they discern that the prosperity of their respective kingdoms rests within each other.

A/N: Hi all! So excited for this story. Firstly, I'd like to thank you for reading. It's been a while since I've written anything so please bear with me! Secondly, I'm changing quite a bit from the storyline (we'll still have all the canonical characters, plus a few original characters), primarily bc I don't want to be simply embedding/planting my own character in the show's development.

Let me know what you think!
