The Lantern and the Moth is a poetic fantasy about balance, love, and rebirth. In a world divided by eternal night, a lantern-keeper named Liora guides lost souls through darkness. When she encounters the Moth, a shapeshifting familiar born from shadow and tasked with devouring the lights of the dead, their meeting threatens both their natures. Her light burns him; his darkness dims her flame-yet each is drawn to the other by a pull older than creation itself.
As the world trembles between forgetting and remembering, Liora and the Moth uncover a forgotten truth: they were once twin guardians, separated when the first dawn shattered the unity of light and dark. To heal the world, they must first reconcile what they were with what they've become.
Told in lyrical prose, The Lantern and the Moth explores what it means to forgive, to endure, and to exist in the fragile space between opposites. It is a story of soft heroism and star-crossed tenderness-a myth reborn from the quiet glow of a single flame.
