Essentially my self-indulgent toxic little situationship thing, but of course we've got a story for it to be meshed in! If you have any interest in an odd and confusing romance, laced with a jarring codependency, fantasy, horror, political intrigue--we have it all right here, where the jaded former hitman Lou Ironwood is finally forced back into conflict, albeit not the kind he so dearly misses. The king has not had a job for Lou in forever, and yet, here he is hiring a magician to entertain his daughter... though the magician's true motives may prove to go far beyond mere amusement, and--for some reason Lou can't figure out--- they may involve Lou in more ways than one.
[//TW for a bit of body horror, as well as vague religious themes in later chapters! I am aiming to have a chapter out every week!]
