From the author of Order of Unity, I present to you a new series called Palisades. This story takes place in Pacific Palisades, California. Xiao Alatus and Aether Luxor are both in their Junior year. Aether lived alone because of his affluence in the chain of yoga studios he started, named Alothera, whereas Xiao lived with his parents who were upper middle class but failed to give him the love and affection he needed from them. Xiao moved to Pacific Palisades in July, two weeks before the school year, from a town called Eureka in Northern California. Often, Xiao was regarded as the shy type, whereas Aether was very social. This details the experiences they had throughout the school year, and their journey onward as they got to know each other. [Cover Art: DukeSturr (Reddit)]

It has been weeks since the prophecy had been fulfilled, and Fontaine had been having constant rain. Wriothesley hasn't been outside the Fortress of Meropide since the prophecy, and has gotten barely any communication. When he decides to go out one day, it's raining. And he is greeted by a teary eyed Iudex Neuvillette. They have tea together, and everything seems to goes back to normal. But Wriothesley undergoes bad injuries and is taken in by Neuvillette, discovering something that isn't so simple. While he heals by Neuvillette, they start to grow close. More close then one could expect.. Story cover does not belong to me!
