    Summary

    Lady Rhea, the immortal Archbishop of the modern world, leads a peaceful if somewhat dull life nowadays. On yet another one of those peaceful days her good mood instantly gets soured when a Demon, disguised as a human tourist, casually saunters into her cathedral and promptly tries to see how much she can further annoy Rhea by subtly getting on all her nerves at once.

    Maybe Rhea could use the excitement she brings though...

    Summary

    “It looks as though… your path ends here.”

     

     
    She thought she imagined the tremble in her former student’s voice as it echoed across the grand and lonely throne room.

     

    “I knew that when we met again that one of us would breathe our last. Some part of me had always thought that your path would lie across my grave. Until now… I could not truly accept that it would be mine that lies across yours.”

     

    Byleth wanted to lower her head, yet she couldn’t look away. She couldn’t look away from the sadness that broke through that mask of determination.

     

    “If you must fall, then let it be by my hand. I do not think I could bear that weight if it had been any other way.” She moved closer, the knelling of her sabatons punctuating every step.

     

    “My teacher. I wanted… to walk with you.”

     

    Edelgard’s strained whisper was drowned in the hum of Aymr bearing down upon Byleth’s head, scattering her last thoughts into oblivion.

     

    Yet fate was equally cruel and kind.
    She left the world at the hands of an enemy clad in her own regret.
    And awoke in the arms of her loving wife

    Summary

    After a long and fierce war between the Adrestian Empire and the Church, the Mad Emperor is defeated and imprisoned, her execution inevitable. An incident between the two of them leaves Rhea confused and she finds herself curious to Edelgard's past, the reasons why she became what she is today, and also what information she holds of Rhea's own enemies.

    As Rhea makes her way deeper and deeper into the answers she's looking for, Edelgard helps her find herself instead.
    And slowly Rhea finds herself drawn to the Mad Emperor in a way that seems to elude the both of them, as thoughts and feelings, which both of them had been suppressing and denying themselves for all their lives bubble to the surfaces in ways neither of them thought possible.

    With a stubborn Edelgard hellbent on creating as much hubris and chaos before her public execution, this will prove to be a difficult few weeks for the very tired Archbishop.

    OR

    Try not to get attached to the person who will be executed by your hands sooner or later.
