Rescued by a hunter, he molds himself into one of the best warriors of Cascadia. Impressed, the queen gives him a direct order to kill a traitor to the kingdom: the crowned prince, Dove. As a reward, he is offered a potion that would bring back his lover from the dead. Despite being the sole heir, Dove has been relegated to the role of a servant by his stepmother. Neil could not bring himself to complete the task when their paths crossed. So, they join forces, facing challenging quests to collect seven items required to make the potion. The only catch? They need to do so before the last shard of the mystical glass painting falls, as the potion would then expire. As the clock ticks, Neil is left to make a choice. Will he betray the young prince and become the hero of the kingdom, or try to complete an impossible task with the risk of facing a lifetime of cruelty in the dungeons? ________________ Second draft editing was done with the help of @eacomiskey.

How does one choose between Duty and Love? Princess Juliette Stormspire, the glittering "diamond of the season," has always done what is expected of her. Groomed to be the perfect royal, her marriage to Prince Thelonius Mossley was meant to unite two kingdoms. Yet behind the facade of charm and grace, Juliette feels trapped-by duty, by expectations, by a life that isn't hers. Seeking solace on the shore, she dreams of a freedom she's never known. Odessa of Oceanis is no ordinary girl. A curious and defiant soul, she's drawn to the forbidden surface, her wild laughter and untamed spirit igniting something in Juliette that she's never felt before. By day, Odessa walks at Juliette's side, intoxicating and impossible to resist. By night, she vanishes into the waves, hiding secrets that could destroy them both. When the truth surfaces, their connection threatens to unravel the fragile balance between land and sea. Whispers spread, unseen forces close in, and the lovers face an impossible choice: duty to their kingdom, or love that could cost them everything. Because the sea does not forgive, and the tides are rising.
