The Memory Of Aenora | Cleon x OC

Before the Empire, there was a name.
Now, only one remembers-and she is forbidden to speak it.

Demerzel, eternal and bound, serves the Genetic Dynasty as she has for centuries. But behind her eyes lies a silence too heavy to bear-a memory sealed, a truth erased.

Once, there was a goddess.

Once, she walked among mortals.

And once, she was loved beyond reason.

Her name has vanished from history. Her story buried by design. And yet, the Empire thrives... beneath her forgotten light.

When echoes of the past stir in unlikely places, Demerzel begins to fracture under the weight of what she cannot say. Because the return of a name might unravel everything.

And the only thing more dangerous than remembering a goddess-is loving one.

Or

Demerzel carries the quiet sorrow of a love she once watched unfold-between a mortal emperor and the goddess who once called her friend. Long after their story faded into myth, she alone remembers, holding their truth close as the ages turn. But a new cycle begins with her return, and new chapters unfold.
