Bound by Moonlight

One's looking for freedom.
One's looking for glory.
The only possible outcome in a world fueled by hatred towards the Moon Witches is complete destruction.

___
Nylleiya lived in shadows her whole life, hiding wherever she could, almost like a rodent, praying to never be seen by a mortal eye. Mortals were fragile creatures and yet they had the power to make a wasteland out of their homes. And they did for the longest time. They cut down their sacred trees, which fueled their powers. They burned their homes. They killed their children.
When Nylleiya gets caught by a King's knight who makes it his life's mission to securely escort her to Kingsgaard and have her face the sovereign's wrath, she thinks that is the end of her journey.
Mortals and Moon Witches have been at war with each other for centuries and yet, neither of them realized the only way to restore the lost world was by simply stopping the endless conflict which has brought nothing but sorrow and loss for everybody in the realm.
