Skipping happily over a world stained grey with ash, the no-longer-forgotten princess hummed a familiar tune. "We burn'd the garden of roses," The doors of the ancient castle have fallen to the Revolution, the blood of my ex-captors covering the marble floor as my people fight for our home. "Hail! The Queen of Corpses," I know not to look at the dead as I roam the empty halls, ignoring the memory of a centuries-dead childhood. "Cheer! The Night of th' Empire!" I waste no energy thinking of the dead courtiers, burning their corpses just as they did my family. I have no mercy left for these vile people, the people whose kindness is as see-through as the cleanest diamondglass. "Ash and snow collide..." "Show th' old chain-holders the pyres as we build." I ignore the pain in my side, raising my glass with a bright smile and celebrating alongside my soldiers. My armour is scratched, old black iron perfectly hiding the rag that hides the deep stab wound in my abdomen. "They all fell down..." Hopefully they don't find my body 'til the morning. I don't want to be saved, to be seen as the princess that let her kingdom be held captive for three centuries. ------- Started: March 2022 Last updated: February 2nd, 2024

"You thought you could threaten her? That you could hurt her, violate her the way that you did and walk away alive?" His voice was filled with raw fury, each word like a blow. "Please," the Sower gasped, his eyes darting to the ghastly charred remains of his men. "I- We didn't mean-" Thane didn't let him finish. With a surge of heat, the flames flared from his body, engulfing the man in a swirling inferno. The Sower screamed, his cries echoing through the clearing as the fire consumed him, but it didn't end his life-not yet. Thane controlled the flames, letting them torture rather than kill, a terrifying display of his power and restraint. "Didn't mean to?" Thane echoed mockingly, leaning down so his face was inches from the Sower. His eyes burned with rage, dark and unrelenting. "You meant every word, every threat, every action. And now you'll burn for it." ******************** In a world torn by war, where men and women are divided into separate kingdoms, Fern, a healer and herbalist, sets out to end the decade-long conflict. Her quest leads her toward the men's kingdom, but an unexpected encounter with an injured man changes everything. Little does she know that the man is the undefeated Ghost of the Battlefield. He was notorious and feared for slaughtering female warriors. Despite the hatred in his eyes, Fern makes the decision to heal him, forging a bond that neither expected. As their worlds collide, they must face the scars of their past. Can a single act of kindness heal old wounds, or will the weight of their history destroy them both?
