One Crown.  

Two Claims.  

A War That Cannot Be Won.

The death of King Adame Leafvale shattered the realm, and his daughter, Aalina, fled the court-crushed by grief, hunted by guilt, and swallowed by the shadows of her own fears. Now, she returns, scarred but resolute, to claim the throne that was always meant to be hers. But the court she once knew is no longer a place of loyalty or honor. It is a battlefield of deceit, where every smile hides a blade, and every step is a dance of betrayal. In the darkened halls of power, only the strongest will survive.

To the south, Britius, bound by a sacred oath and a haunted past, struggles to unite the Etheri-an ancient people torn between honor and survival. His quest to claim the crown is a perilous gamble, one that tests not only his strength but his very soul. And though he walks the path of kings, it is one stained in blood and shadow.

But beyond the realms of men, in the forgotten corners of the world, an ancient enemy stirs. His vengeance is as old as the kingdom itself, and his claim to the Thorn Crown is not one of mere ambition-it is a thirst for retribution, a desire to see the kingdom burn. His return will mark the beginning of a new, darker age.

In a realm where loyalty is fleeting, and alliances are fragile as glass, every truth is twisted, every promise broken. The fires of war are kindled, and the ashes of a shattered kingdom will leave no man or woman untouched.

Only one question remains: Who will emerge from the storm to claim the crown-and what will they have lost in the end?

Divided (Throne of Glass and A Court of Thorns and Roses Crossover) by softballchick27

For decades, Aelin Ashryver Galathynius and Rowan Whitethorn have ruled the Kingdom of Doranelle, passing the governance of Terrasen to her cousin, Aedion, and his descendants. Since her defeat of Queen Maeve more than 100 years ago, Aelin has lived in relative peace, until nightmare-like prophecies of an unknown threat begin to plague her dreams. Feyre and Rhysand defeated the King of Hybern several years ago. Prythian has thrived under the semi-cooperative leadership of the seven High Lords (and one High Lady), but a dark force has been gathering to the West, and as events transpire, it becomes more and more clear that a long lost prophecy must be fulfilled before Prythian can finally be at peace once more. Aidan Meara Ashryver Havilliard has been groomed since childhood to inherit the throne of Adarlan, but at the age of sixteen, she is both sickly and frail, wasting away from an illness that no healer in Erilea has been able to diagnose. When an aunt, long thought dead, resurfaces with information that offers an answer to the disease as well as information about threats to the South, Aidan must make a decision that could affect not only Adarlan or even Erilea but two entirely different worlds.

A Queen crowned for the masses." He stated before grabbing her head, making her look him in the eye. She could see everything he was trying to tell her, she must prepare herself for what was to come because it wouldn't be pretty. Nodding her head, she stepped back wiping her face as she watched his essence disapppear with a murder of crows. It had been the largest number of crows she had ever seen carry his essence, whatever was coming would result in a lot of death. Of that she was certain. WARNING ⚠️: This story is mature.
