King Baldwin knows that he will soon die, but what happens when he falls in love with a princess from another country and imagines a future with her?

A prophecy foretells that only one girl is destined to cure the king.

In a land divided by war and faith, a scarred king and a foreign healer are brought together by necessity, but held in place by something far deeper. Set in a vaguely medieval world shaped by cultural conflict and quiet rebellion, 'The Bronze Mask' follows the slow-burning romance between King Ovid, a war-weary ruler marked by illness and isolation, and Anula, a foreign healer whose knowledge challenges his beliefs. Bound by duty and drawn by something neither can name, their relationship unfolds in the quiet spaces between suspicion and surrender. As love blooms in the shadow of tragedy, they must confront not only their differences, but the inevitability of what lies ahead. A melancholic tale of intimacy, dignity, and the quiet acceptance of fate. *ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚*ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚*ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚*ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚ Author's note: While The Bronze Mask is an original work of fiction, the character of King Ovid was loosely inspired by the tragic figure of King Baldwin IV. I encountered his portrayal in passing, and though I haven't deeply engaged with the historical records or cinematic depictions, something about his story-a ruler enduring leprosy with stoicism-resonated with me. This novel is not a fan fiction, but a separate narrative built on that single thread of inspiration.

Amicia wanted nothing more but peace. But peace is not given to princesses, especially not to the future bride of Baldwin VI of Jerusalem. She does not want to leave home, but she also does not want to disappoint her father, her kingdom. So she obeys and enters a marriage that feels so cold and distant. But what if the little dove with silver hair spreads her wings to comfort the aching king of Jerusalem? Will he let her in? Will she overlook his illness and see him for what he truly is? Or will this sanctuary that is slowly building in their hearts be tested and twisted by those who seek power?

(っ◔◡◔)っ ♥ Context that no one reads♥ The five Arthurian Romances by Chrétien de Troyes is all about romance defying social construct. A chivalry, courageous and honourable type, conveying courtly love and national unity. I had only found out about this poetry book very late but coincidentally it complimented the story brilliantly, so I have featured it in this piece. I decided to name this book after all five novels, calling this the 6th Arthurian Romances, as it is also set in that time. Essentially, it is about love between two different classes. As you know they took King's bloodlines very seriously as well as the hierarchy in the 12th century. But what if this king, like the Knight of Lion and the Knight of Cart, followed their hearts rather than society?
