A haunting, bittersweet sapphic romance about a star and the woman who loved her. A romantasy novelette with a hopeful ending.
For thousands of years, the stars have been fixed in place, separating the sea above from the sea below.
Sister Elegy remembers when the star, Ailta, fell to earth decades ago. Back then, things appeared so simple. It was Elegy’s duty as Ailta’s chosen guardian to ward her path to the tomb of the Queen. For it was foretold that a star would bring the Queen back to life, and usher in the glory of Her renewed reign.

Together, they faced the dangers of the road, the weight of Sister Elegy’s regrets, the all too real shadows of her past, all while silently grappling with the uncertain purpose of their destination…
