Sword and Shield [Rewritten]

After the War of Driónne, a fragile peace settled between the Four Kingdoms; Aldri, Erusett, Irukar, and Ydros. Nearly a generation after the war, there are whispers of Ydros preparing to take up arms again and reignite the war that struck them down years ago.

Rising tensions threaten to test Aldri's fledgling princess Ailla and her newest guard, a mysterious young woman who calls herself Vacia and seems to have no history beyond her recruitment. Both must overcome great obstacles in both each other, and in the brewing war between kingdoms, and both will learn secrets that could shatter everything they knew about their world.

IMPORTANT: chapters with TRIGGERING CONTENT will be marked with an ASTERISK NEXT TO THEIR TITLE. Specific warnings will be noted at the beginnings of each chapter if needed.
