A retelling of Grimm's King of the Gold Mountain
Odessa made a bargain with a Saint, offering ten years of her life in service at the convent in exchange for a home after her mother dies. And if she tells anyone about the bargain or breaks the rules, the saint warns her that something terrible will befall the person she loves the most.
"It felt almost blasphemous to say, but the moment her Saint had saved her, she knew she had also been cursed."

The Wendigo of Remnant
Silver eyes are the most powerful weapon against the Grimm. And the creatures of darkness hated the light and always tried to kill them on sight. But what if, the forces that were meant to kill each other, came together in a single body. A harbinger of death and a kind soul. #1 in Wendigo (Hell yeah!) (1/5/2025) #1 in Remnant (NICE!) (1/31/2025) #1 yangxiaolong (2/3/25) (Bro, how?) (May add more tags if necessary. Also, no, I ain't shipping, and no Y/N. I am here to make a story and a character with a meaningful name and make it realistic!) Upload schedule: Every ~two weeks? I don't know why actually drew the Wendigo due to it being uploaded by probably a thousand users, so if you know the original creator, please let me know. RWBY used to belong to Roosterteeth but now belongs to VIZ Media (man this feels weird.)
