Xerophthalmia.
Zerrine Quivelisse Castillo had this disease since time immemorial.
She couldn't produce tears.
Not because her heart is frozen nor crystallized -not like those in other fantasy novels.
It was because of vitamin A deficiency.
But what if...
She shed tears?
She felt pain, she had her heart broken...
By a man she never expected.
