Thrust into the ancient and mysterious Eldewood, he begins a journey of self-discovery and magical training under the guidance of the enigmatic wizard Vesperius.

She won't let him.

And in the chaos, destiny will be forged.

Hearts of Thorns and Starlight by ava_1009

In the kingdom of Eldoria, every noble-born child is tied to a celestial star at birth, granting them a fated match-one person in all the world who shares their light. But Princess Arianwen was born without a star, making her unmatchable and an omen of ruin. To prevent a war, she is forced to marry Lord Kael, the infamous Thorn Prince-a cursed warrior bound to a dying land. His touch withers flowers, and his presence drains life, yet he alone seems unaffected by Arianwen's lack of fate. As they navigate their cold, political marriage, Arianwen discovers that Kael's curse is not a punishment but a safeguard, one tied to an ancient prophecy about the missing star that was never born-hers. With a rising rebellion, secrets hidden in the stars, and a slow-burning romance neither expected, Arianwen must choose: embrace the fate she was denied or shatter destiny to rewrite her own.
