NO THANKS NEEDED. IT'S WHAT FRIENDS ARE FOR.
What?
The first tendrils of trepidation begin slithering up her spine, goosebumps coursing over her skin.

Summary
The story of the slumbering Sun Summoner is known by all. That hundreds of years before the creation of the Fold, there had been a Grisha with the power of the Sun. The Black Heretic’s opposite in so many ways, brightness in virtue, in personality, in ability and divinity. Alina, the stories always called her, because he would not let any other bastardizations of her name stand. The fables always exclaimed her as beautiful, with shocking white hair, some correctly describing her as half-Shu, others maligning her as a woman as fair as a Fjerda Princess. But they all agreed she lived the life of an orphan until her powers were discovered. Discovered, and here, most stories got it wrong — coveted and destroyed by a Shadow Summoner. They fell in love, the stories went, but he tricked her; this devilish man who locked the Sun Summoner in a tower in exchange for the safety of all Ravkans.
It infuriates him that he is the villain of her story as he plays the villain to everyone else.
No matter, though. He's determined to find her.
