Welcome to the Veil lands, where monsters are the only ones who can save you.

Eirene:
I’ve survived at the edge of the world, stealing the memories of travelers to pay the Veil’s hunger.
Then the boundary shrieked, and the sky permanently split wide open.
Now, an iron-masked monster has ducked into my cottage to end my treason.
Varkhul is a giant built of harsh angles, tusks, and a lifetime of absolute obedience.
He captures my bleeding wrists, but the twin moons light up a dangerous, mutual heat between us.
They say our touch is eroding the wall, but his darkness is the only anchor keeping me whole.

Varkhul:
My tusks are weighted with iron rings, each one marking ten executions for the order.
I was the Iron Citadel’s cleanest weapon, sent to the border to eliminate a rogue witch.
Instead, I found a silver-haired woman bleeding herself hollow just to keep the realm alive.
My ancestral blood is an active poison to the Veil, but when it mixes with her skin, the screaming barrier goes dead silent.
I was sent to be her executioner, but I will butcher my own commander before I let the dark take what’s mine.
