what if when Arthur returns from Alacrya and Tessia was always there cold and ruthless nothing like the girl he promised to ?
In the wake of a devastating war, Arthur Leywin, once a hero and the future of Dicathen, has returned from Alacrya-now a man transformed. Gone is the boy Tessia once knew, replaced by the figure of Lance Godspell, a god-like savior hailed by the people for his victories over the Taci and alliances with the very people who destroyed her home. The kingdom celebrates his return, but Tessia can't bring herself to rejoice.
As the head of Dicathen's strongest division, Tessia has fought relentlessly to protect her people, but the scars of war run deep. The death of her parents, the devastation of her homeland, and the choices Arthur made during his time away have hardened her heart. Now, the man she once trusted stands before her, worshipped by others, but to her, nothing more than a broken promise.
With tensions rising and the kingdom still recovering from the ravages of war, Tessia must face Arthur once more. But forgiveness is a distant notion, and her anger toward him burns too brightly to ignore. As old alliances are tested and secrets begin to surface, Tessia will find herself caught between her duty to Dicathen and the unresolved rage she feels toward the man who left her behind.
"The Broken Promise" explores the complexities of trust, vengeance, and the long road to healing, as two souls clash over a past that neither can escape.
