Prologue - Where it all Started

This is an old tale,


A story from before the Celestial Knights, ever knew they were the Chosen Ones, before their names carried weight, before destiny ever whispered its calling.


For long before them,

Others had stood for Elvaine. Others had fought beneath its banners, bled upon its soil, and faded quietly into the forgotten pages of time...


...Yet some stories refuse to die.


Refuse to fade and let the slow tide of years swallow them whole.


They endure.


Carried through time and across distant lands, whispering their lessons to whoever willing to listen. Stories that refuse silence. Stories that insist on being known.


And this old heart remembers...

It aches with their memory.

For justice,

Is a curious thing…

It toys with the soul, stirring a longing that never quite fades. A yearning for what was lost, and what might have been...

So listen well, fellow travelers.

Let us hear once more the echoes of the past.

Let the years turn back like pages in a worn and weathered book, to a time nearly forgotten...

To the beginning of a story...

Enjoy it...

...While you can.

Farial-Jap-Girl: なんて素敵で、予想もしなかった読書体験なんでしょう! これは間違いなく、ありきたりな恋愛小説ではありません。むしろ、そうじゃないことに感謝したいくらいです。登場人物たちがとてもリアルに感じられるんです。欠点があって、複雑で、情熱的で、人間らしい「白か黒かでは割り切れない」魅力的なグレーの部分に満ちています。怒りや支配、愛、そして怒りの赤い霧に飲み込まれそうになったときに、別の道を選ぶ可能性を描いているところも、とても好きでした。でも正直、一番の驚きは、この本がとにかく楽しく読めたこと! 作者はヒロインの声を見事に描き出していて、私はすっかり別の時代、別の場所へ連れ去られたような気分になりました...

Biva: Quite good for a novella. Impressive writing style and we'll edited. Just one thing- Karla keeps referring herself to a stray cat and while at first it makes sense the analogy gets stale after a while.
