La nouvelle loi est claire : Désormais, les Cendres sont considérés comme dangereux. Ceux qui ne livrent pas ces enfants doués de magie au gouvernement risquent la peine de mort. Comme beaucoup d'autres, mes parents ont refusé d'obéir mais l'armée a fini par me trouver. Cet affront, ils l'ont payé de leurs vies. On m'a emmenée et j'ai rencontré les autres. Ils me ressemblent. Mais leur magie n'est pas aussi sombre que la mienne. Je sens que quelque chose se prépare au-dehors. Une nouvelle guerre. Mais je crois que le véritable ennemi n'est pas celui que nous pensions avoir. Nous devons arrêter ça avant que le monde ne parte en fumée. Avant qu'il ne reste plus que des Cendres... «Tu as en toi le côté sombre de la lumière, accepte-le...» NDA : Cette histoire est (enfin) en réécriture et il n'est pas impossible qu'il y ai certaines incohérences, rien d'incroyablement horrible mais bon, je m'en excuse d'avance. Bonne lecture. #3ème place aux Friction's Fantasy Awards🥉

Alera lost her mother early in life and was raised by a strict king for a father and the many nursemaids who crossed themselves before touching her. It wasn't until she was of marrying age that she learned why the people feared her. She was canny... like her forest mother. Canny and feared to be fae. The only person besides her father who didn't seem to fear her was the handsome stable boy. He knew what she was and didn't cross himself before letting his hands touch hers longer than needed for helping her to her mount. And on her 18th birthday, neither could deny the bond that dragged them together. But her father had her sold off to make an advantageous match with the neighboring king's sullen and cruel son. Even a kingdom over, the whispers of the canny princess the people feared as fae reached royal ears.
