After slaying Cadell and discarding Nico, Arthur is confronted with his worst nightmare. Before him is Agrona and even worse, Tessia. At least he wishes it was her, but, alas, it's a different childhood friend. Unable to kill Cecilia once more and refusing to cause harm to Tessia's body, Arthur does the only thing left: he whisks Cecilia away. Now gone from the Victoriad and with Cecilia in tow, Arthur heads back to Dicathen and a new story unfolds. ~ ~ Start date: 9/12/22 ~ End date: 3/31/23 ~ ~ This is a fan fiction of the light novel series 'The Beginning After the End.'
