In Progress
When Sundered Spirits Dream
A noble in hiding. A brother in denial. A madman driven by revenge.
Under the Spirit Council’s rigid laws, being born a princess means surrendering your future to duty. When a violent abduction gives one young noble the chance to disappear, they seize it. Adopting the name Dearal, they exchange courtly obligations for the anonymity of the stables, conceal their magic, and begin building a life that finally feels like their own.
The life Dearal builds begins to unravel when an unexpected friendship with a young noble deepens into something neither of them can afford. If the Council uncovers Dearal’s true identity, they will lose not only their freedom, but the magic that has become part of who they are. Meanwhile, Prince Tharon refuses to believe his missing twin is dead, following a fading trail across land and sea.
Tharon’s search leads him into the hands of a man harvesting magic from the innocent to fuel a war of revenge. As the Spirit Council tightens its grip on the kingdom, the sanctuary Dearal fought to build is reduced to ashes, and the past they escaped comes searching for them once more.
Is it truly freedom if one must hide who they are to achieve it?
