Summary
“The idea of you in the grasp of Ghilan'nain and Elgar'nan, suffering because of me, I couldn’t bear it. My worst nightmares brought to life could not compare to the dread I felt in that moment. Their foul voices, that whispered promise, the thought that they would take everything about you that I love and adore and twist it, blight it, puppet you on the edge of what you fear most. I couldn’t lose you, Emmrich, not like that, not ever. You hated me, but you were safe. I’d pay that cost a thousand times over,” Rook sniffed, holding back tears.
---
In the wake of the sixth Blight, Rook finds herself adrift, clinging as best she can to her old life as a florist of the Grand Necropolis to maintain some normality. The choices she made still haunt her, the companions and the lover she hurt and lost along the way, leaving an aching void in her heart.
But what Rook believes to be lost is only shrouded in misunderstanding.
With the help of her friends, she'll find her feet again.
With a drunken confession of love through floriography, the language of flowers, her heart will be mended.
