Growing up in District 2 during the aftermath of the great war had not been easy. You had learned that more than anyone. Your life had been stolen away from you at such a young age, and matters were soon made worse when your classmate and school yard crush, Sejanus Plinth, had been taken to the Capitol alongside his family. You spent years wondering if you would ever see him again, hoping he was still alive. Until one night, a few tapping noises sounded against your window. You looked out to see Sejanus, waiting below your family's manor. He had come back for you. Set before the events of The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, "Across the Horizon" follows the story of two star-crossed lovers divided by a feud that neither wanted to be apart of.
