After the Night, Before the Dawn just updated! Doren and Valla struggle to weather the storm and find something strange in the desert.
Synopsis: Valla can't remember who or what she is. She woke broken and never healed, and chose to seek revenge without knowing her enemy's identity.
Doren was disgraced from the Order of the Promised, a class of knights sworn to keep all oaths to the Empire and the weak who ask them for help. Now he wanders as a Shamed, aimless and honorless. His love of music guides him to Valla through the loneliness and humiliation of his excommunication.
When Valla demands Doren work as her assassin to keep her goal of vengeance, she has no reason to expect they will succeed, and Doren has no reason to agree. They start their shared journey against all logic, both desperate for healing but not knowing where to find it.
