Lovers. Bound by fate, a red string, caged in a world where their hearts are torn and their goals misguided. Is it even possible for fate to save them from their doom?

The nations of Valdaria and Erathis had been at war with one another over land and trade for centuries, until King Aerelius stepped into power within Valdaria, securing peace between the two Kingdoms. But not all peace lasts as the unexpected death of the King weighs heavy and the suspicion of foul play is brought to light, his daughter, Elara, seeks the truth out. But what happens when the enemy is closer than you think?

The wind floated around them, a comfortable air settling between the two souls as they perch upon Heath Hill, their treasure for as long as the two could remember. Their heads ajar upwards as they took in the stars above, the light within the darkness, a reflection on their life. He turned his head towards her, unbeknownst to her as he watched her, a warmth settling within him as he studied the face of a mere goddess. Turning back to face the stars as a smile settled on his face,
"Elara, I must confess." He stated with no further warning as his eyes stay still, reading the stars above with content,
"Hm?" Was all she mustered out as something swelled within her in anticipation, silently brushing it off. Kaelen now turned his head to face her, to let his message sink in, to tell her his truth.
"I cannot shake these feelings, Elara, I think you know it as well as I do. The feeling of you lives within my body, like a pulse. If I were to ever loose you, I believe my heart would forget how to beat."
He didn't stammer a single word, nor did she look at him with surprise, instead through glass eyes, tears forming as they tried to push themselves out.
"Then, please, for as long as I breathe, never lose me Kaelen."
