"BYLETH, YOU'RE DYING."

Those were the words Byleth Eisner had heard her entire life...but it had never rang true. She had always known that the doctors were wrong, that she was going to keep living, but the fear of death was constant. Born with a heart that never beat, Byleth's life was constantly swamped with doctor's visits and frantic calls from the hospital. 

Byleth was just going about her normal day when a new face pops in at her workplace, the Eisner bar. His name is Claude von Riegan, a new bartender who has big dreams and hidden secrets. 

They hit it off right away. And for the first time, Byleth feels as if maybe life really is more than just waking up every day and going through the motions. For the first time in her life, the fear of death disappears from her mind.

"BYLETH, YOU'RE DYING."

These three words had echoed through Byleth's entire life...but this time, Byleth knew it was true. The doctors showed her screenings of something mutating on her heart. At most, she has one year to live, unless she can find a cure.

Despairing about the unfairness of the situation, Byleth swears she will save herself. For her own sake, her life would continue on, especially now that she had become enlightened by Claude's presence.

However, it doesn't take him long to figure out something is wrong with his new instructor. Claude promises to stand by her side, and help her. Inspired by this new hope, Byleth and Claude must race against time to find a cure before her clock runs out.

The Exalted Flames by AngelSlayer5
21 parts Ongoing
COVER ART IS MINE!!!! DO NOT TAKE!!!!!!!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ All that could be heard in the empty palace was the crackle of electricity, as a diamond made of lightning jutted out of the woman's side. "This is not your, your fault. Promise me you'll escape from this place... Please, go..." As she crumpled to the ground the wicked laughter of a demon echoed through the palace. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ After having a dream about killing a woman with dirty blonde hair Byleth awakes in a field with no memory except for the name of the woman who found them, Edelgard. She just also happens to be the same woman Byleth killed in said dream. As Byleth, Edelgard, and her younger brother Dimitri, journey across the continent in search of peace, Byleth is able to piece together some of their lost memories, but they are not of Ylisse. As more memories surface, the more confusing things get. And the worst thing is, the only one they can ask for help are the very people trying to destroy Ylisse in the first place. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I do not own any of the characters as they belong to intelligent systems and nitendo. Will update when I have 4 hours on a fully charged 3ds so don't keep your hopes up. There will be various ships in the story, gay, straight, and non-binary love is all present. I am sorry If you don't like that, but I hope you will at least give it a shot :) Tiger warnings: Blood, Violence, S3lf harm, Su!c!de (sorry 😔)
