'He had been an inferno these past six months, burning so hot and for so long he feared there was nothing left but ashes.' This is a story of violence and destruction, of friendship and healing. - There is drug use, themes of self-harm and some consent issues (NOTHING graphic). But please don't read if these issues may upset you. NOTE: This story is populated with characters from "The Raven Cycle" series by Maggie Stiefvater. You do NOT need to have read those books in order to read/enjoy my story. (However, you should read TRC anyway because it's an AMAZING series.) I do NOT own these characters or the setting. I'm merely borrowing them for a short while to tell this angsty little tale.
