It was bound to happen eventually. Amber supposed it was a good thing she retained herself, at least.

Summary
A primal was summoned with an immense amount of chroma and could temper anyone close by. It was like a magical parasite, worming its way into one’s mind until anyone would turn into its thrall, serving it unapologetically. He had read recovered letters of how friends had turned against friends, parents had killed their children, and throats had been cut by their own bodies.
The worst part was that they couldn’t even leave the primal alone.
Lumière was running out of supplies and they had to make the continent livable.
And that just so included slaying an immortal primal that could temper them if they dared to get too close.
God, Gustave needed a drink.

Summary
There is no room for hope in her world—only strategy, survival, and a constant, bitter negotiation with fate. She’s not naive enough to think she can rewrite the ending she doesn't know. But maybe, just maybe, she can buy someone a few more pages. Maybe she can delay the worst.
Charlotte is not reckless—she is resigned. Her stillness is not peace, but exhaustion. Her coldness is not pride, but grief curdled into silence. She is a girl trying to hold herself together in a world she has already read fall apart, and the cracks are beginning to show—not in tears or outbursts, but in the quiet moments where she stands at the edge of a rooftop, practicing how not to fall.
And deep down, she wonders if staying alive this time is even the right thing to do.
OR
A girl from our universe is reborn into the Empyrean - only, she's the daughter of one of the first Lt.'s to speak up about Navarre's careless disregard of Tyrrendor and their people. She knows too much, yet too little. And she also doesn't know how this story is going to end.
