Daughter of Crows

"If you want peace, prepare for war" - Freye

Sometimes you don't get the privilege of making choices. It is either: walk through the fire and get out with a few burns or be flung into it and get charred to death.

They didn't have that advantage.

They got caught in the middle of a war.

They knew they had to take drastic measures in order to survive in this cruel world. They mastered the art of concealing their feelings. They built walls to protect their hearts from betrayal and pain. Now, they must learn how to trust their new-found family.

It is hard for them to do so since the only people they ever found trustworthy were their chosen family. The one who took them in when they needed a roof to live under. And with a young love that is still fighting the obstacles thrown its way throughout the years. A girl who believed that she was too damaged to be loved and a man who thought he was incapable of loving.

"We're bound to those with whom we share blood. And while we may not choose our family...that bond is our greatest strength."
