The Fox and The Flower

Two worlds, two souls … Rei Yunhsi was never considered talented or beautiful—but she was always determined. Despite her parents’ objections, Rei was certain that her fate lay in the neighboring country of Paruskia, where she could not only continue her pursuit of her refined plant magic, but seek and find a medicinal herb that would lead her to become a legendary healer. Upon her arrival in Paruskia, however, fate had other plans. Trained warrior Ilvor Raev had always been viewed as a bad omen by his fellow Paruskians, whose ancient magical powers lay in their bonds with animal soul companions. Ilvor’s companion, a fox, meant he had been marked by the God of Death to become a Grimr. Though Ilvor doesn’t believe this, the superstitious Paruskians viewed him with suspicion. When Rei and Ilvor meet, each begins to challenge the assumptions they have endured all their lives, hoping for a peaceful life together. However, peace was never an option as long as the demonic Jyagas continued their war with the Paruskians. As Rei and Ilvor battle prejudice and endure vicious attacks from evil forces, the healer and the warrior come face to face with their own fates—and must battle for their love as well as their lives.
