Will Morris is a young boy on the verge of dedicating himself to serve the holy Eternal Light. The only thing that keeps the world safe from a mysterious darkness. But for a young man, the laws of the Eternal are hard to follow. Questions are forbidden. Affection is forbidden. An impossible purity is required.

When Will meets a young girl, he learns there are worse things than darkness. And he can't stop himself from breaking every rule he has ever been taught.

The Metaphorical Key Book II- Forge the Path by AM-Morning
23 parts Complete
(If you haven't read the first book, stop here! Don't spoil yourself, the first book is also on my profile) The death of a friend can break a person, or reshape them. It could be the straw that broke the camel's back, or a motivator, a push in the right direction. Aiden isn't sure where he falls. All he knows is the guilt and the desire for vengeance. Maybe things could've been different if he hadn't made such a disastrous mistake. But then an opportunity arises for Aiden to learn more about his fallen comrade, to get to know him even beyond the grave. And like death, everything that follows could make or break the rebellion. Note: This story contains a subplot featuring a romance between two boys. It's presented as normal. If you have a problem with the lgbt+ community, then this isn't the book - or authour - for you. I'm a member of the community myself. Happy pride month! Spread love, not hate. <3
