What if the Darkling and Alina hadn't been interrupted that night at the winter fete? What if the Darkling had caused Alina to become pregnant with a child? What would happen to this child of legend? Would they be locked away out of fear? Or welcomed as a saint as Alina once had? Rena was left by the doorstep of an old Shu couple, someone left her there with a note saying "My deepest apologies for leaving my child here, but it was for her own good, she will find me when the time is right, her name is Rena, meaning 'peace' and 'Joy', I hope, unlike me, she will be able to find it" But when General Kirigan and his army of Grisha invade the outskirts of Shu Han, will Rena be discovered, and if so how will she survive? Story starts off in between events of shadow and bone, then slowly progress through siege and storm. __________________________________________________________________________________ *DISCLAIMER MOST OF THE CHARACTERS HERE ARE OWNED BY LEIGH BARDUGO APART FROM A FEW OF MY OWN OC THIS IS BASED ON AND HAS SPOILERS FOR THE BOOKS IN THE SHADOW AND BONE SERIES ALONG WITH THE NETFLIX SHOW* Enjoy!! __________________________________________________________________________________ Ranking achievements: #1 in Grishaverse 22/07/21 #1 in Rena 15/05/22 #1 in LeighBardugo 22/07/21 #1 in Darkling 07/01/23 #1 in RuinAndRising 20/07/22 #1 in AlinaStarkov 06/07/23 #1 in Darklina 07/01/23 #1 in ShadowAndBone 26/01/23

┍──༺⋆⋅☆⋅⋆༻──┑ Love. War. Death. Hate. Peace. Birth. What if Alina and Aleksander had spent the night together? What if their child held both the power of light and shadow? ┕──༺⋆⋅☆⋅⋆༻──┙ After she abandoned the Darkling in the Fold, Alina thought she could live the rest of her life in hiding with Mal. But 13 years later he finds her again and comes across a big surprise... ┍──༺⋆⋅☆⋅⋆༻──┑ This is based on the Netflix and book series and takes place after Season 1/Book 1. But it is mostly an AU story. I will not be including the Crows, because that'd just make it too confusing for me. So I'm sticking to the Grisha trilogy characters and my OCs. ┕──༺⋆⋅☆⋅⋆༻──┙ #2 Alina 2/06/21 #9 Darklina 2/06/21
