Sustaining the King's Life

COMPLETED. (WARNING: R18 on chapter 200+ onwards. This is a SLOW BURN ROMANCE. Read at your own risk.) ** On a secluded mountain situated upon a kingdom known as Feuersturm, resides a seemingly trifling cabin with an unlikely duo as its inhabitant—a witch, and her apprentice who presumably comes from a clan sought after by slave traders. Faustina is a sixteen-year-old girl who fled the slave market with the help of a sickly witch named Eula, who later on trained her as an apprentice for the span of seven years. Plagued with a mysterious disease for several years, Eula died despite the efforts Faustina had exerted to cure her; in her last breath, she left an odd request behind. "Sustain the king's life. This is your duty. Do not adhere to the prophecy." To which the odd plea shadowed a bizarre series of events, a consequential sentence; similar to that of a premonition. The same night the phrase was muttered, the chain of events followed: A warlock's intrusion to their home, with a peculiar yearning to resurrect Eula from the dead... and the king himself, asking for Faustina’s aid.

The Sixth Dorm

Faustina had walked east as per Magierstadt's map. The dorm of the sixth Ianua was the farthest among all of the other dorms. It was near the 'Magi Forest' which was located north. Fireflies, magic lamps, and the bright half-moon served as the light of the students. The entire academy was still lively at night. Many students were still scattered, searching for their 'Houses' or their Ianuas. Some are chattering and were sitting into the grass as they peer through the night sky and the place surrounded by the warm glow of fireflies.
