A Bitter Lullaby [Splendorman Fanfic] #CPThroughTime

Prequel to Lost in Your Song (or whatever I renamed it/please don't go looking for it). Cover art done by me. Please don't steal.

The time of year is 161X and Susanna may as well be bored beyond death. Chores upon chores and constantly being badgered about finding herself a husband soon. That is all she seems to hear nowadays. Though the land is mysterious, and the woods are enticing, she is still trying to get used to the surroundings of her new home in British America. However, it seems that the only way to satisfy her boredom is through books. Books that shouldn't be read by a woman such as herself.

But that is the least of her problems.

There is a rumor going around about faceless monsters. Monsters that prey upon children, monsters that caused the disappearance of the Lost Colony. People have seen sightings of these beings in the woods and in the fields, but at the same time, there are stories of people finding objects they had once lost in the woods, wondering if the beings were causing those too.

All of that was hogwash to Susanna...

That WAS what she thought. Not until she met the faceless, colorful man did she start to believe they were true...
