The Lycan King's Outcast Omega
Kieran - Late That Night
The astronomy tower has become our sanctuary, the one place in the palace where we can escape the constant demands of rulership and just be ourselves. Tonight, with Princess Zahra tucked safely back in her chambers after an enthusiastic lesson about constellation navigation, the three of us sit together on the cushioned benches, wrapped in warm cloaks against the autumn chill.
"The Healer's Star is particularly bright tonight," I observe, pointing toward the constellation that's become especially meaningful to me over these past months. "According to the old stories, that means a time of great healing and growth."
