Rlain and Renarin's souls are cosmically intertwined. They have fallen in love with each other through every single desolation. Most times they weren't men, most times they only interacted with each other once or twice. And all times but one, it ended poorly.

Summary
Kaladin is sworn to protect. She’s a spy sent to betray. And their relationship could save—or break—both of them.
Kara has always walked between worlds: lighteyed noble and Diagram loyalist, spy and scholar, failsafe and free spirit. Sent to Urithiru with vague orders and no backup, she plans to lay low, map the tower, and stay unnoticed. But when she ends up as a scribe for the Windrunners, Kaladin refuses to drop his suspicions, and she can't quite tame her curiosity. As suspicions rise and war rages, Kara must navigate dangerous secrets, quiet friendships, and a Windrunner captain who asks too many questions and makes her wish she could give honest answers.
Secrets unravel. Storms gather. And Kara’s past returns. Violently.
Sometimes, survival means trusting the person with the sword at your throat.
WEEKLY UPDATES (or more)
Written in 2020 before Rhythm of War, so canon divergent. Set a few weeks after Oathbringer. This was one of my first long-form projects (~100k words). While most of it is older, I'm giving it a light edit and adding finishing chapters.
Note: This Kara is an original character and not the Windrunner Kara who appears later in canon.

The saga continues;
King of Alethkar, God of Honour and single father. Kaladin’s life came crashing down around him after swearing his fifth ideal. It was the hardest one yet and in the aftermath of the trauma can he recover or will he shatter? Who can he trust when Navani has turned against him, Kalak betrayed him and all of his friends just don’t understand.
Struggling to cope with the grief Kaladin finds himself regressing as he lives a new and simple double life as a recruit. As it turns out Bridge twenty-three needed this new recruit just as much as he needed them.
Meanwhile the desolation continues as Odium does not back down after the Honour shard was reforged. Instead, it is Vyre who hatches a plan to try to turn the war back into the favour of the enemy.

Summary
This is my fix-it fic for Wind and Truth because the ending broke me and I want to feel happy. I love Shallan and Adolin and Kaladin's dynamics and wanted to explore it without them getting separated. Major spoiler warning for every book in the Stormlight Archives because I'm not sure exactly what I'm going to put in and I've read all 5 books. This is not gonna be canon compliant for the most part but I am going to strive to keep their characters and setting true to themselves.
Last warnings: Smut, lots of smut and angst, lots of kinkiness, lots of spoilers.
I hope you like it!
