❝ AND ALL I DO IS CRY AND COMPLAIN, BECAUSE SECOND'S NOT THE SAME. ❞
"Our families will hang us both if a single word is spoken to them about this," Elisabeth whispered, the crown of flowers perched on her head slowly beginning to droop and die out. Alec found some sort of comfort in the resemblance he felt towards the array of flowers; he was slowly beginning to droop and die, too. His petals had opened and bloomed long ago, turned into a flower that he had never wanted to be, and, now, he was slowly killing himself with his own mind; petal by petal, leaf by leaf.
"I know they will, Elisabeth." He sighed, letting his head fall against the windowpane. "Then again, there's absolutely nothing we can do about it. Our families run by their religion, while we run by our hearts - and I swear - I promise you, my friend, that one day, I'll change all of this. I don't care if they end both me and Lucas; it'll all be worth it in the end."

"In a word I was too cowardly to do what I knew to be right, as I had been too cowardly to avoid doing what I knew to be wrong" Charles Dickens, Great Expectations.
I'm a textbook pessimist and I like it just the way it is.
Eynal is a highborn boy who has whatever he could need to be happy but his outlook on life plagues him at every turn, obsessed by the notion that existence is entirely pointless living in his own world void of anything remotely positive he turns a blind eye to anything that is expected of him, but forces beyond him thrust an entirely new situation upon him that he fails to navigate with his usual indifference will he adapt and change as expected? or will he find a way to cast it aside as he always has.
This story is based around medieval fantasy with some inspiration from the classics (Lotr, GOT) it will navigate the personal lives of two characters who are polar opposites and an increasingly fragile political situation in the world they live in
