Will Riftan be able to help her remember the joy that she lost or is she truly safest when she feels nothing? *cover art @Balaneth

"W-wait Maxi, aren't you uncomfortable?" "C-comfortable here...w-with y-you." Riftan didn't have anything more to say. So here's a little brain fart I had because these two are the epitome of angst thoughts and miscommunication as well as growing slowly with each other haha. Just a random one-shot set in the first book just after Riftan discovers Maxi is studying magic. *Characters and story belong to KSJ

Maximilian comes from a royal bloodline. What if that gave her access to a forgotten, cursed army that only answers to her and could turn the tide of the war? Inspired by Lord of the Rings: Return of the King. *art is by my_second_sketchbook
