A collection of stories set largely in the same sort-of-alternate universe. This series is primarily centered on the relationships between various Paladins and Knights, namely Avicinda, Giroda, Chigda, and Kuroda but will also feature some original characters and a general Faewish Sprite ensemble cast.
Main Stories
The story of the Wishing Woods' Paladins and Knights—and the grand conspiracy—has always been intertwined with the legacies of Captain Kuroda, his lover Chigda, and the Millewish Sprite.
Devotion
Avicinda/Giroda, Avicinda/Chigda. Pre-canon.
Roughly 800 AW, 202 years ago. In the highlands of the Wishing Woods, a young Paladin and an escaped traitor meet and quickly become dear friends. But theirs is not a relationship that can blossom into anything more, not when the Desperate Vines are lurking in the shadows, ready to claim the one who would become their most loyal servant...
Retribution
Chigda/Kuroda. Pre-canon.
Roughly 1400 to 700 years ago. What makes a Knight? What choices can he make to lead his people? How can he make those choices, when his hand is forced by the only one he loves?
Absolution
Avicinda/Giroda, Avicinda/Chigda, Avicinda/Wuyeda (OC), Chigda/Kuroda. Post-canon.
1002 AW to 1003 AW. The present. For a Knight and the Paladins around him, the path to move forward becomes unclear. But it exists. It is there.
