All is Fair In Love and War

Summary:

Third life Novelisation essentially, written with all the direct dialogue from the series but I just read into everything a bunch and make it way deeper than it needs to be!

Notes:

Hii!! I'm back! If you don't know Boundless, feel free to go check it out, it's the version of this I did for double life, but you can also a hundred percent read this one without reading that one. If you do know Boundless, you know to strap in I guess cos I'm doing this again! I wasn't going to, but then the brain worms wouldn't leave me alone so now I can't not. I'm hoping it's not gonna be quite as long (for the sake of my sanity) but we'll see.
Again, I'm not making any promises about finishing this cos it might spiral out of control and be huge, and I won't keep doing it if my inspiration dies idk.
I'll try to post regular updates about this one tho over on my tumblr if anyone cares that much idk but here's the link just in case you do. https://www.tumblr.com/blog/iwritefartoomuch
I hope people enjoy this project! I'm really looking forward to it!

Chapter 1: Prologue

Chapter Text

This is a tale as old as time

That’s happening as we speak

This is a play performed by the strong

And written for the weak

This is a story of peace

That accursed bloodlust takes

This is a story of people

Who try until they break

This is a story of running

Away and out of time

This is a story of friends

Who don’t want to fight

This is a story of lives

Taken and bargained and lost

This is a story of love and rage

And everything it costs

It’s a tale of blades

And a tale of fists

A tale of trades and tricks and lists

A tale of a promise, an oath, a kiss

A tale of war

And it goes like this
